Wolves are magnificent canines that live and hunt in packs. The gray wolf is common across northern Europe and North America. But even this alpha predator eventually dies, leaving its bones behind.
Did you know? In 2019, scientists discovered a frozen wolf's head in Siberia that they believe to be 40,000 years old. It was larger than any wolf today and still had flesh, fur, and teeth.
That same year, an equally well preserved wolf pup believed to be 18,000 years old was found in the same region. The puppy may represent the ancestor of both modern wolves and domestic dogs.
