When we talk about the wolf, do we usually think it's useful or harmful? Although such a question here is inappropriate, as animals can be immediately both necessary and harmful.
This animal that attacks a herd of cows or domesticated reindeer harms people. But at the same time, when hunting sick animals in the woods, the rest of the population benefits. In such cases, wolves are called forest nurses. Their victims are also wild animals that are careless or weak. That's why, where these predators live, most often live strong birds and animals. Destroying painful animals, it as if saves the rest of the relatives from hunger and various diseases.
What to do - to destroy or protect him? If you look at the behavior, on the one hand, herders of horses, sheep and rams suffer from it.

He is clever, and therefore quickly realizes that he is being hunted, thus leaving the dangerous place. In addition, he moves so carefully that even very experienced hunters can not find a home for the female, where her cubs are. When she feels the danger, she-wolf transports to a secluded place, where they soon grow up and go with their parents to winter hiking.
In order to get food for themselves, they have to wander a lot. And since it is hard to get through the deep snow, the wolf roams the roadside. His instincts are so good that he can smell the trap even under the snow cover. When he can't catch anybody, he starts to listen, if any animal will run. And by the screaming of the birds he easily determines where the dead animal is. A predator can stay hungry for more than five days, and then he becomes more fierce.
Wolves belong to the family of dogs and live, as a rule, in a deep ravine, where impassable places, more often in the woods, behind the buoys.
