Ethiopian Wolves are one of the most or the most endangered canines on earth, as their name suggests they are recursively live in Ethiopia. They were once mistaken as foxes instead of wolfs because of their social behaviors. Later was found as a species of wolves, thus becoming the only species of wolf in Africa. It’s Upper coat is a gold and red mix and its lower is a white, it has large ears to regulate its temperature. They live in packs with 3-13 wolfs per pack, hunting in and defending their territory. Preferring small rodents, this animal with its pack can take down a small gazelle. The females are usually bigger than males but lower in rank most of the time, they mate in August though November bearing 3 to 7 pups in a litter.

HI Alana. As you already know I loooove wolves and I find it really sad that they're so close to extinction.(And surprising that they can have as little as three members in a pack. That's like an omega, a beta and an alpha) I'd love to see them in person(from a safe distance). I find it cool that people thought they were foxes for such a long time, and also the way you described them made them sound beautiful. Dangerous but still beautiful. Would you like to see them too?(so we can go together when we’re older:)
ReplyDeleteReina, I would deeply agree to you but since there so rare they are hardly seen in the wild. So the best chance you and I can get is to look in a zoo! Sorry.
