From Joyce Milton’s Wild, Wild Wolves, pp. 15-16. Use by permission of Random House Publishers.

Introduction

Let’s find out some information about wolves.

A hungry wolf can eat 20 pounds of

Meat at a single meal. That’s like eating

one hundred hamburgers! To get all this

meat, wolves usually hunt big animals

like deer and moose. But a hungry wolf

will chase and eat a rabbit or a mouse.

It may even go fishing! Wolves live in

groups called packs.

The pack members “talk” to each other

with their bodies. When a wolf is scared,

it holds its ears close to its head.

When a wolf is happy, it wags its whole

tail. If it wags just the tip, watch out!

It is getting ready to attack.

Other wolves know these signals.

The signals help the wolves

Live together without fighting.

Questions

1. What kind of animals do wolves usually hunt?

(big animals or deer, moose)

(rabbit or mouse or fish ½ credit)

2. What is a wolf pack?

(a group of wolves living together)

3. What does a wolf do when scared?

(holds its ears close to its head)

4. What does it mean when a wolf wags only the tip of its tail?

(it is getting ready to attack)
