Wolves move in packs or alone. In small groups during the breeding season, wolves often form large groups to prey on ungulates in the Taiga region of North America in winter, with the largest pack reaching 36 in Alaska, but generally no more than 20 wolves.
Wolves are territorial, and are usually rangers, and the range of the pack decreases as the number of individuals in the pack increases. The range of the field between the groups does not overlap, and the range is announced to the other groups with a howl. Large prey is usually hunted in groups.
When the young wolves grow up, they will stay in the group to take care of their younger siblings, and may also inherit the dominant position in the group, and some will migrate out (most of them are male wolves) and use nests when reproducing, usually made by digging holes in the ground, which can be three or four meters long, and have a large mound at the entrance. Wild wolves can generally live for 12-16 years, and some wolves in captivity can live for about 20 years.

Wolf habits: Wolves prey mainly on medium and large mammals and have a very strict hierarchy. The range of the wolf pack does not overlap, and it will announce the range to the other packs with a howl.
When the young wolves grow up, they will stay in the pack to take care of their younger siblings, and may inherit the dominant position in the group, and some will migrate out (mostly male).
The wolf is medium-sized and well-proportioned, with slender limbs and toe-walking, which is conducive to fast running, with a pointed head and palate, a long face, a prominent nose, and pointed and erect ears. well-developed canines and fissures; The upper molars have a distinct cusp, and the lower molars have a small cusp and heel cusp on the medial side: the diameter of the crown of the molars is greater than the height of the lateral incisors.

Wolves are widely distributed throughout the world, and they once lived throughout the northern hemisphere, Canada, the United States (except Hawaii) and Mexico in North America, most of Europe, almost all of Russia, parts of East Asia and the Middle East, India and Nepal. But today, wolves are no longer found in much of the United States except for the northern states, wild wolves in Mexico became extinct in 1960, and so did much of Asia. The situation is worst in Europe, where almost all but a few wolves have been wiped out, except for Spain, Italy, Poland, Greece and Turkey.
