To me wolves are the perfect animal...they are social animals, they mate for life, they are highly intelligent, and great hunters. Wolves actually will keep a herd of caribou strong by killing the old and the sick but they don't just eat deer. When Farley Mowat lived with wolves in Canada's arctic he was surprised to see that a huge portion of their diet consisted of lemmings or mice.A wolf is natures template from which all of the genetically selected animals we know as Dogs descended from. A wolf is a dog in its purest form, with no man made selections for personality, cuteness, size, shape or whatever. It baffles me why so many people fear these animals. No doubt is has to do with theIR portrayal in movies, works of fiction and even Christianity (lambs represent innocence and wolves kill lambs so they must be bad or evil). Anyway, I am not a Christian so I find this view no more accurate that the story of little red riding hood.
