| Publisher Description: Wolves are a lot like people. They are mammals, they live in families, or packs, and they live and hunt in a certain territory, or home. Wolves must have very good hearing and a strong sense of smell to be able to find and hunt for food. Their thick fur helps them to stay warm. From playful pups to powerful wolves, watch these magnificent animals through incredible action photographs as you learn about patient, watchful wolves |
