Diet
The arctic wolves must hunt together in packs when seeking large prey.In the summer they eat lemmings, birds, arctic hares also they sometimes catch fish. The cubs catch insects, ground squirrels and other small animals. Sometimes full grown wolves will attack musk oxen. When this happens the musk oxen will form a circle around the younger ones and when a wolf attacks a bull will charge and toss the wolf up in the air and trample it under its hooves. They also eat elk mountain sheep and sometimes they eat berries.
Physical Characteristics
The shoulder height of the arctic wolf varies from 25 to 31 inches. On average, they are about 3 feet tall from head to toe. Their body length may vary from 3 to 5 feet (nose to tail). Their colors may range from red, gray, white and black. The approximate weight of a full grown male is 175 pounds. In captivity, an arctic wolf can live to be over 17 years. However, the average lifespan in the wild is but 7 years.
Wolves in general have been under threat throughout history. The arctic wolf is the only subspecies still found over the whole of its original range. This is largely because it rarely encounters humans.
