Gray Wolf Legal Notes and A Photo
Canidian Timber Wolf (Gray Wolf)
Image by Richard Clark (Digimist)
Wolves’ heads are large and heavy, with wide foreheads, strong jaws and long, blunt muzzles. The ears are relatively small and triangular. Wolves usually carry their heads at the same level as their backs, raising their heads only when alert. The teeth are heavy and large, being better suited to bone crushing than those of other extant canids, though not as specialised as those found in hyenas. The canine teeth are robust and relatively short (26 mm). The animal can develop a crushing pressure of perhaps 1,500 lbf/in2 compared to 750 lbf/in2 for a German shepherd. This force is sufficient to break open most bones, as well as cut through half inch lassos with one snap.

The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved — loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves.
Victor Hugo
