Wolf packs are usually made up of a small family unit. When pups reach the age of three, they can either continue living in the pack or leave to find their own territory and form their own. Each pack is led by a breeding male and female pair. |

There used to be a lot of gray wolves across North America, but they were hunted so much that they became endangered. Conservation efforts continue to be important, as wolves’ protection status can vary from state to state, and many people are still under the false impression that wolves are a threat to humans. |
