Wolves howl as a signal to other wolves, telling of the beginning and ending of a hunt, of a wolf separated from its pack, as a warning to other wolf packs, and simply for the fun of it.
Red Wolves have a reddish coat that varies from light brown to almost black.
Smaller than the closely-related gray wolf , the red wolf has long legs, long ears, a narrow head, and strong jaws with sharp teeth, including long canine teeth which tear flesh. They have very good eyesight, acute hearing, and a keen sense of smell. Wolves hunt in packs and often prey upon animals that are much larger that they are. Red wolves mostly eat white-tailed deer and raccoons , but will eat almost anything, including birds , fish , snakes, lizards , and fruit. Wolves almost never attack people.
