Canis Lupus
Uploaded by: ShenKuei1987
Video Description:
The Gray Wolf (Canis lupus; also spelled Grey Wolf, also known as Timber Wolf) is a mammal in the order Carnivora. The Gray Wolf shares a common ancestry with the domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris), as evidenced by DNA sequencing and genetic drift studies.Gray wolves were once abundant and distributed over much of North America, Eurasia, and the Middle East. Today, for a variety of human-related reasons, including widespread habitat destruction and excessive hunting, wolves inhabit only a very limited portion of their former range. Though listed as a species of least concern for extinction worldwide, for some regions including the Continental United States, the species is listed as endangered or threatened.
The Gray Wolf, being a keystone predator, is an important part of the ecosystems to which it typically belongs. The wide range of habitats where wolves thrive reflects their adaptability as a species, and includes temperate forests, mountains, tundra, taiga, and grasslands.

too bad there's only one thing for Bloody Wolf
Thats either within your lifetime or your childrens lifetime!
Your grandchildren will never be able to see this amazing animal. They'll ask you about it one day and the best you'll be able to do is to show them photos of wolves.
When I think about that I get really sad :(.
