=**" __Wolves"__** = My most favorite animal is the wolf. Canines have been "man's best friend" since the begining of time. Where does that trait come from? Wolves are the ancestors of all dogs today. The appearance of the wolf itself is simply mystical. The ample but strong body makes the wolf an almost unbeatable opponent. Their swift, muscular legs can carry these astounding creatures for many long-distance runs. Wolves also come in different colors for their shaggy-haired bodies; these include black, white, grey, brown, or anything in between. Wolves can also make e very loyal companions. When hunting down their "fast-food", wolves work with one another as a cluster, specifically called a pack. Wolves in captivity may adapt to humans and be less aggressive towards them. If left with a domestic canine of another species for breeding purposes, wolves may also become attached; that is, if they react to each other in a non-threatening way! Myths, movies, and legends may, however, tell different tales. Many movies producers use the wolf's popularity in films to represent guides or signs for their main characters. I strongly think that wolves make great subject cartoons and love stories though! Also, Indians greatly believed that wolves were inherent tribal members. Wolves have a medley of ways to communicate. One of the most distinctive ways is when they howl. Howling allows several wolves to track where another is located, to signal before and after a hunt starts, and even to express themselves when they feel lonely. Barks and whimpers are very much as well, a common way of communication between all canines. Another way wolves communicate is through body language; for example, "ears lain back" means stay back. Also pay attention to the position of their tail. " down" is sad, or timid; "up" is happy. These are only a few reasons why these magnificent beasts are my most preferred animal. Their cunning looks, loyalty to loved ones, and the unique way they go about their lives make wolves one of the most fascinating creatures on Earth. Anastasia Lynn Turner-Author
