Some say that the wolves are not biologically ready to be taken off the endagered species list and still need protection. Should wolves still be protected or should they be allowed to be hunted and killed. The grey wolf The grey wolf ranges form about 4 to 6 feet in lengthe and can weigh up to as much as 50 pounds.

The term "domestic dog" is generally used for both domesticated and feral varieties. The dog was the first domesticated animal[4][5] and has been the most widely kept working, hunting, and pet animal in human history. [citation needed] The word "dog" can also refer to the male of a canine species,[6] as opposed to the word "bitch" which refers to the female of the species. Recent studies of "well-preserved remains of a dog-like canid from the Razboinichya Cave" in the Altai Mountains of southern Siberia concluded that a particular instance of early wolf domestication approximately 33,000 years ago did not result in modern dog lineages, possibly because of climate disruption during the Last Glacial Maximum. [4][7] The authors postulate that at least several such incipient events have occurred.

Anthony Freschi Anthropology 102 Professor Dr. John Ziker September 18, 2010 “Peoples of the Tundra” By Dr. John Ziker Dr. John Ziker in Chapter two of “Peoples of the Tundra” (2002) begins with discussing the geography, climate, environment, and ecology. Ziker explains the importance in the northern Taimyr region because it is a feeding ground for the wild reindeer, which is the largest in the world. He also explains the four main river systems named the Yenisei River, the Piasina River, the Avam River, and the Dudypta River. The Avam and the Dudypta rivers are essential to the Dolgan and Nganasans, because the areas around the rivers are utilized by both tribes. The climate in the Taimyr is based on a polar day and polar night system.

One obvious difference is food. For the Inuit, the most important thing is the people adapt to their lifestyle in the coldest and most unforgiving environments. The Inuit are the people who originally lived in the Arctic, so the harsh Arctic
Largest in North America, the gray wolf can range in different colors depending on which forest of Tundra they range upon. They can live up to ten to eighteen years and average the length of 102-163 cm. An adult may even weigh in up to 85-115 pounds, but smaller is the female weighing 50 to 100 pounds. Considered the world’s most natural villain, the gray wolf has rarely ever attacked humans. However, they may take it upon them to attack our everyday domesticated animals like our dogs, rabbits, cats, or even our livestock, which can cause tragedy because then they are trapped and shot.
The author uses some technical language such as ‘vitaminC’ and ‘scurvy’ to implie that this is the only source of food, energy, tools and money in the High Arctic, which shows her sympathy to the hunters as hunting for Narwale is the only job they can do. The area in the High Arctic is not suitable for growing other vegetables. Narwhals has a rich source of useful nutrition, so Inuit people catch the narwhal as a main source of food. Also, the Narwhal’s ivory can be used for many things such as ‘harpoon tips’, ‘hunting implements’ and ‘central beam for their small ancient dwellings’. These fully describe that Inuit people can’t live without the Narwale, as it can help the Inuit people to survive.
