The gray wolf (Canis lupus[a] ), also known as the timber wolf,[3] [4] true wolf[5] or western wolf[b] is a canid native to the wilderness and remote areas of North America , Eurasia , and North Africa .
The Eurasian wolf (Canis lupus lupus), also known as the common wolf[2] or Middle Russian forest wolf,[3] is a subspecies of grey wolf native to Europe and the forest and steppe zones of the former Soviet Union . It was once widespread throughout Eurasia prior to theMiddle Ages ; aside from an extensive paleontological and genetic record,[4] Indo-European languages typically have several words for 'wolf', thus attesting to the animal's abundance and cultural significance.[5] It was held in high regard in Dacian ,[6] Baltic ,[7] Greek , Roman and Celtic cultures, whilst being demonised in that of the Germanic tribes .[8]
It is the largest of Old World grey wolves, weighing between 69–80 kg (152–176 lb), though this varies according to region.[9] [3] Its fur is relatively short and coarse,[2] and is generally of a tawny colour, with white on the throat that barely extends to the cheeks.[9] Melanists ,albinos and erythrists are rare, and mostly the result of wolf-dog hybridisation .[10] The howl of the Eurasian wolf is much more protracted and melodious than that of North American grey wolf subspecies, whose howls are louder and have a stronger emphasis on the first syllable. The two are however mutually intelligible , as North American wolves have been recorded to respond to European-style howls made by biologists.[11]
Many Eurasian wolf populations are forced to subsist largely on livestock and garbage in areas with dense human activity, though wild ungulates such as moose , red deer , roe deer and wild boar are still the most important food sources in Russia and the more mountainous regions of Eastern Europe. Other prey species include reindeer , argali , mouflon , wisent , saiga , ibex , chamois , wild goats , fallow deer andmusk deer .[12]
