Grey Hunters

People are afraid of wolves for all sorts of reasons. Wolves are believed to be in a close contact with evil and their howl frightens us.
Wolves are very highly developed creatures. They have very good sight, smell and hearing. Would you believe a wolf can smell a deer when it is 2 km away? A wolf has 42 teeth that include four vicious fangs to tear and kill prey. The wolf has a large stomach capacity and can eat in excess of nine kilograms of food. On the other hand a wolf can go without food for two weeks or longer.
There is no need for us to fear wolves as they mean us no harm as they are grey hunters.
