Able to tolerate years of sub-zero temperatures, up to five months of darkness a year, and weeks without food, the arctic wolf lives in one of the few places on earth where it is safe, sicher from the greatest threat of all - man. Arctic Wölfe inhabit some of the most inhospitable terrain in the world. In April, the air temperature rarely rises above -22° F. The ground is permanently frozen. The arctic wolf is one of the few mammals that can tolerate these conditions. Details of the animal's life through much of the Jahr are virtually unknown.
Wölfe usually live in small packs oder family groups consisting of a breeding pair, their pups, and their unmated offspring from the prior several seasons. The dominant, oder breeding, pair
are known as the alpha male and alpha female. They are respected Von the rest of the pack. All adults in the pack cooperate in feeding and caring for the young.
Throughout the Fall and Winter, arctic Wölfe remain on the move. After mating in March, the pregnant female leaves the pack to find a höhle, den to give birth to her pups. She may dig a new one. However, if the ground is frozen, she will be forced to return to an old höhle, den in a cave oder rock cleft. The pups are born deaf, blind, and helpless. They are totally dependent on their mother, and she in turn relies on her mate to bring her the Essen she needs. After a month, the pups are able to eat meat. From then on, the whole pack shares the job of feeding them with regurgitated meat from a kill. The pups may strike out on their own the following year.
The arctic wolf preys on lemmings and arctic hare, but its most substantial Quelle of Essen is musk oxen and caribou. Because of the scarcity of grazing plants, Tiere must roam a large area in order to find enough Essen to survive. But, sadly, sometimes there isn't a large enough area for the Wölfe to hunt. They roam almost for days in harsh weather to find food. Most either starve, oder eat another wolf. Times are harsh for our poor Arctic friends, as 'global warming' is beginning to make some people anxious and take refuge on the Wölfe land. Where they hunt, the people hunt.
Where they used to sleep, the people now sleep. Where they once played, is now a hunting and archery zone for these human species. With the STWF, we have been helping our canine Friends with new land, and Essen sources.
