Description
Summary:Arctic wolves live far north, in places like Greenland, Alaska, and Canada. They usually live in packs. They are carnivores and tend to eat every piece of the animals they eat, including their bones! They have smaller noses and shorter muzzles, which help them conserve body heat in the winter. Arctic wolves can travel far and fast, but they tend to stay in a certain territory with their packs. The inner layer of their fur gets thicker in the winter to keep them warm. Baby arctic wolves are called pups and they live in a den with their mother. Wolves bark and howl to communicate with each other.
