RANGE OF THE GRAY WOLF BEFORE 1850

Jeremiah
says:
"Wolves roamed
the entire North American continent. They adapted to life in the
coldest tundra to the hottest deserts. Why, wolves would live
anywhere they could find a good meal!"
"The wolf was
important to Native Americans. Pawnee Indians used the same sign
language to identify their tribe and the wolf. Cherokee Indians
believed singing and imitating a wolf walking would protect their
feet from frostbite. Indians admired wolves for their intelligence,
social structure and hunting skills. However, things were about
to change."
