Wolves are a class of the canine family, and are the largest of all canines. They are carnivores and range in size depending on where they live. Some of them are only about 50 pounds full grown while others can be up to 200 pounds. They can range in size from 4 ½ feet to 6 feet. They are found to live in many places throughout the Northern Hemisphere. They are very intelligent animals that live in packs. They can have from 6 to 20 members in them at a time. They hunt as a group which makes it possible for them to take down large prey such as moose and elk. Other than hunting to eat, wolves are usually not aggressive. However, they will fight other animals and even other wolves in order to protect their pack. The average lifespan of a wolf in the wild is from 6 to 8 years. Today many species of wolves are considered to be endangered.
