Red Wolf


Red Wolf - vermin, still dwelling in the mountain areas Endangered animalsof Central and South Asia. Why, yet? He was threatened with extinction. World Red Book contains information on the status of the red wolf endangered animals.
Mountain wolf, also known as a rare animal - an animal is quite large: the length of his body - more than a meter and half-meter tail almost reaches the ground. Add to this the very unusual appearance, and you will understand why the fans of hunting trophy for hundreds of years, carried out mass shooting of these animals.
Red Book WorldLook at the pictures of red wolf . Whom does he remind you of? Characteristic pointed snout, bright chestnut color, fluffy long tail, I think, a fox . And his hair more fluffy than its gray cousin. But the large rounded ears rather meet at a jackal. This representative canine - a mountain dweller. It rises to a height of four feet above sea level: Rocky Mountain alpine zone - his usual habitat. On flat terrain beast appears in search of food. Prey it can serve as a small rodent, and a large artiodactyls.

Mountain wolfStrong, tough predator hunts in packs (5-10 individuals) and is able to cope with a large deer and roe deer, and even a tiger. But do not give up the idea of plant foods, especially in summer.
their shelter mountain wolf usually found in the crevices of the rocks, in caves. This is a wonderful jumper: 5-6 meters in length - for it is not the limit.
Endangered speciesPeople beast escapes (probably this is due to genetic trait), it can not be tamed.
We are recently on call to save the red wolf. Because otherwise, after several decades of our wildlife can not be counted more than one species. It can just disappear like disappeared already, such as the marsupial wolf. According to the Red Book now number around the world only 2500 adults, whose name is the red wolf .
