  Fact file on the grey wolf (Canis lupusx*q7 -g 5qwbvr3h 9;dme kqol4)

Wolves occur naturally in North America and Eurasia.
Wolves prey on wild animals such as deer, boar and hares, keeping their population numbers in check.
Wolves may prey on domestic animals such as sheep, causing an economic loss to the sheepherder.
A mature female wolf may give birth to 6-8 pups yearly.
Wolves are territorial, claiming a large area of land for their pack.
Humans have hunted wolves to extinction in several countries.
