It is known that usually wolves do not attack people, except for the she-wolves protecting the posterity and rabid individuals. A wolf - very clever and cunning animal therefore if you gathered in a campaign for the nature, it is necessary to know how to distinguish it from a dog.
Instruction
1. Pay attention to the animal size: wolves are usually larger than dogs. Their weight - from 34 to 55 kilograms though also males up to 80 kilograms meet.
2. Look narrowly at a tail of an individual: at a wolf it never twists. Wolves always hold a tail lowered down or horizontally to the earth. Only dogs are able to wag a tail, and at a wolf the tail is almost not mobile.
3. At a wolf ears always upright, and the muzzle is considerably extended and pointed, unlike dog.
4. The shape of the head of a wolf is very similar to a shape of the head of a German shepherd, but is much wider also massivny, than at this breed.
5. Wolves absorb food very slowly because they have narrow jaws. If they hurry, then choke. Characteristic groans and a poskulivaniye - from painful swallowing food.
6. The family wolf can be distinguished also on a manner of the movement. Long transitions are made usually at a trot, and width of a trace path is approximately equal to width of prints of paws. Hinder legs are accurately put in prints of traces from lobbies and if it is several animals, then they follow in the tracks of the first going wolf.
7. Traces of paws of a wolf are very similar to traces of a large dog. However the trace of a wolf is deeper and more accurate, than dog as the mass of a wolf is more, paws are more rigid, claws massivny more largely, and fingers are moved apart less. Prints of middle fingers of paws of a wolf are more pushed forward, than dog. The front ends of middle fingers and claws at a wolf are brought more together on traces, in comparison with prints of paws of a dog.
8. Wolves very long can pursue the production, but at high-speed prosecution (to 65 kilometers per hour) if they do not overtake the victim through 300 meters, the pursuit stops.
9. In a fight or on hunting the dog bites to death the victim, and the wolf as if kills her as thanks to the jaws, this predator easily can raspolosovat in half the production.
