Wolves
A wolf is a wild dog. They do not live in houses like a dog does, but they look alike.
Body
Like a dog, a wolf walks on four legs and has a lot of fur. The fur keeps the wolves warm. Some wolves live in cold weather and need a lot of fur. The Arctic is a very cold place and many wolves live there.
Food
A wolf does not eat the same food as a dog. A wolf eats other animals. One animal that a wolf eats is called a deer. A wolf can run very fast, so it is able to catch a deer.
Family
A wolf does not live alone. Wolves live in groups called packs. A pack is like a family. There can be as many as 20 wolves in a pack.

Both answers are correct
Neither answers are correct
