Much like fingerprints on humans, howls are distinct to each wolf. What are your thoughts on these unique creatures?

Well dogs are wolves too, so they aren't going extinct
Wolves are beautiful creatures. Wild, clever, family oriented. They're a part of our land and history.

Not really only 2 people have been killed in a century by wolves they are fairly docile but they are wild
@@amandabitting8780 yes but they are capable of doing it
And that is why you have dogs now
@@adamfurey7320 well as a human I am capable of killing anything so we humans must be destroyed. İt's the same thing that what mankind did to animals
Me too buddy, me too
For people questioning the legitimacy of naming wolf classes: the studies done on wolves when describing behavior was with captive wolves with no relation to one another, they were all strangers. It was lord of the flies where eventually a wolf would declare itself as leader. In the wild, wolf pack structures are like humans. You have parents and the kids. There are no alphas, betas, omegas etc. There is no pecking order in the wild, the parents oversee everything and often give first dibs to smaller pups on small game. Every structure is different, but the mannerisms and constant behavioral checks are no different than an obstinate teenager telling their parents NO.
Well said thank you much
Thank you for adding this. The researcher that started this has spent the rest of his career trying to undo the whole Alpha myth. It is how you say, a family.
Thank you for clarifying. I was like no they don’t
Wolves are majestic creatures. Love them
However diehard furry wolfaboos aren't

“The tiger and lion may be more powerful, but the wolf doesn’t perform in the circus.”
I love wolves but what does it mean to the wolf
Elephant, Hippo, Rhino, Bear, Crocodile all perform in circus. They're more powerful than Lion and Tiger.
And that is why national animal of Turkey is Wolf🇹🇷🐺
Wolfs are stronger than tigers we just didn't know and they are so cute
@@gachaamazing8574 that is soo fking true wolves and tigers dnt fight tho ur true im wit u ur my friend
weren't "alphas" just mother and father? like humans they don't procreate with family members and oldest siblings have the most responsibilities.
@Operation Wolf Blood they are many scenarios where this isn't the case
In some packs, alphas could also rules their siblings. And sometimes lone wolves join in a pack.
Although from many wolf documentaries I've seen, the actual dynamics within a pack is vary.
In some packs, betas also had mate and procreate. In other, only alphas could have pups, in another pack, some of the alpha's daughters bearing pup with a lone wolf from next door teritorry
Vivanya Todd yea the cookie cutter mom and pop doesn’t always happen that’s why most researchers still use alpha
Yes, the "alphas" are usually the parents/grandparents, and wolves interbreed regularly with their cousins
There has been studies on this. Artificial packs tend to form a "Alpha" type structure. but with natural wolf packs this is not the case
It's worth mentioning, that reintroduction of wolves in certain areas has actually improved the quality of wilderness and forests. Apex predators force other species to move around more frequently, preventing them from settling and stripping the forest out of resources. It promotes an equal spread of animals in the wilderness, thus reinforcing the overall health of the forests. Lynx is also great at regulating spread of wildlife, to the point that their reintroduction in the balkans actually brought back some forests from the brink of desertification.
2:40 THAT'S A BEAUTIFUL HOWL 😍👌🏻
Yep
The howls are the best thing I could hear on earth
AyooOooo
i’ve never heard one in person but i want to so badly.
And when you're in the jungle & you hear that, you'd wish you were deaf.
love to see that there are still lots of people who love the nature and amazed by it
Im so lucky to live in an area where I can sit outside and hear their beautiful howling sometimes! You definitely hear them much more than you ever see them though! Very elusive here in Northern Michigan.
Aww, lucky indeed

Wolves in my opinion are one of the most unique and amazing animals on the planet we all share
@@GreenScottyHW what an ancient lesson I learned when I heard that story as a toddler
Whoever does not know wolves and their methods of killing will believe that they are loyal and noble nope then the wolf has surpassed the hyena and the wild dog in its brutality and lack of mercy and pity for its prey Does it deserve this respect? It is also not tamed especially tundra wolves which have the strongest jaws in the canids
seeing wolf howl reminds me thinking my pet dog crying for food LOL
Wolfs are dogs just stronger
@@gachaamazing8574 wolves are dogs ancestors.
@@gachaamazing8574 Dogs are wolves that we have domesticated, there are different types of dogs with different characteristics, called breeds, some dogs can do some jobs, for example drug sniffer dogs, police dogs, guard dogs, sled pulling dogs, hunting dogs and also anti tank weapons, although, they don’t do that last part well
Wolves 101. Never thought I needed this class but glad I attended. Thanks Nat Geo!
Real wolf packs in the wild are literally families with the "alphas" being the parents and the rest of the pack being their pups. The thing about pack hierarchies only applies to wolves in captivity.
Not entirely true, there are instances in which some families will adopt in one or more "immigrant" wolves and there are even some rare occasions in which several families will form a single pack, in which cases the top wolf can be considered by all intents and purposes the alpha.
@@MyBodyIsReggie1 Huh, I didn't know that. That's really neat! :0
The most beautiful animals on this planet! My soul!
@@madhavilanka7787 u dont know what u talking about, coming round here wanting no beef... Come on, where u at??
Okay I am just going to delete my comment sorry if it was rude 😅
The wolves right at the end were beautiful. 🖤
Wolves are everyone’s spirit animal, it can be symbolic of strength, fierce, bravery, courage, and passion etc. Stay Strong my friend👊🐺
Not *everyone* has a soul beautiful enough to have a wolf as their spirit animal

Im not a wolf but I am a dog. So Im basically related to yall sort of..
The world just wouldn't be the same without wolves.. they are such beautiful creatures!
I am honored by the fact that these creatures live in my country.
We should all be grateful for early conservation efforts done to protect these animals. We were so close to living in a world without wolves. We should keep this in mind when scientists sound the alarm on other species.
The most interesting thing to know about wolves and their subspecies (including the domestic dog) is that there is little genetic variation between them. I just got finished a sequencing lab and had to put my sequence into BLAST to find out what species of animal I had for my mystery meat lab. I had to go with common sense as each wolf subspecies has very similar DNA. We didn't get a wolf from Europe (Canis lupus lupus) or a domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris) or a wolf from Greenland (Canis lupus orion), etc. I had to go through each sequence and find a wolf species from North America. I had to choose the grey wolf, which is the Canis lupus.
They are magnificent animals with a very strong sense of family and loyalty. It's sad to see that the stereotypes of the wolves still exist and that more people are scared of them, but I am glad to see that in areas where wolves were wiped out, that they are being reintroduced. For example in parts of the United States and in Europe.
You're a geneticist?
lmao chihuahuas are wolves 🤩🤩
They're usually more scared of you
@@joshlisti3420 that's a rat
Of course people are afraid of them. It's our instincts as primates to fear canines

Good because they are Holy! I dont know how there are men that hunt them. I'm from USA. And I know people hunt them. Its discusting. I better not ever hear someone talking about hunting them in front of me, I'll throw hands. I'm legit laying down right now with a Wolf Blanket wrapped around me lol. Love them
Yep
WOLVES IS ONE OF MANY FAVORITE SPECIES OUT THERE. NEED TO make long documentary about "Wolves"
My favorite type of wolf is the night wolf but i love all wolfs the same way
Aww... What a cute lil wolf pup. *Bares fangs... NOPE. ABORT. Nice one NG. Is this wolf week?

Same expression. lol

Wolfls are amazing 😊
Little Howler and the Wild Kratts have inspired me to love wolves when I first watched Wild Kratts in 2013.
By the way, did you know that a wolf pup can howl when he is 3 weeks old?

Wolves and corvids my absolute favorite beings ❤❤❤ them so much
After reading so many werewolf book im so in love with wolf they look so adorable, i wanna pet them
I love wolfs . They're so beautiful.
0:07 not legoshi and louise arguing again 🙄✋
Wolves 🐺 are highly smart. Their intellect may be found in communication, and problem-solving. I love the way their mind works.
Gray wolves are very common up here in Alaska they are actually the main type of wool that you’ll find up here.
Samantha, did you ever go to schol?
my spirit animal.. sometimes i want to go to yellowstone in wolf sanctuary but so far away and need a lot of money to travel there :(
I want to go to a tiger reserve here in India.
I want a wolf here in U.S.A
@@sugarthedogyt3573 you can own wold dogs but if you want something less volatile, just get a large German shepherd... mines is 60kg and is absolutely harmless but they need a lot of walks and attention. Its not just something you can ignore like a small dog... i shouldn't even suggest owning a wolf dog because my sister had one, she was a beautiful dog crossed with GSD but too temperamental, too many requirements and that was someone who owned large dogs for 15 years.
Just try not to be eaten haha
They're still WILD ANIMALS and are dangerous... which is sad 'cause I want to hug and pet them too :(
My soul animal is a wolf
These creatures were the first that we socialized with
How beautiful gorgeous lovely sound quality is very mix
I love their faces and howls
They cute

I don’t care if they attack hooman :)
Doggo loves bones. Woof!
Their so majestic
Such beautiful creatures
Wolves. Now my favorite animal.
I wish I'll see a wolf once in my whole life :(
You can go to a wolf Sanctuary… Or even Yellowstone
Yes, just be sure that the wolves don’t wish the same thing to you.

Hope you do soon!
I like how net geo produce quality content! Information is crisp and clear! ❤️🔥
pretty friggin cool dude please make more of these videos
Wolves are Also my Favorite Animals, when I Grow Up, I Will Rescue Them Before They Became Extinct.
Here's the Hint, The World Needs Wolves So They Could Hunt Their Favorite Prey Like Elk, and if the Wolves Went Extinct, The Elks Will Eat A Lot Of Trees And Branches, If The Elks Eat A Lot Of Trees And Branches, Creatures Like Birds Can't Build Their Nest, So That's Why The World Needs Wolves To Keep Them Healthy And Survived.
I Do Know About Wolves.
🐺
1 elk dont eat whole trees .
2 if one species gets to big they are mostly held in control by disease and starvation.
3 there are still human hunters to keep te population under controll .
Anyway wolves are stil important in the ecosystem killing the weak animals and leaving the strong ones to breed and making the whole population stronger
Anyway keep learning kid they are very interesting animals and it is much fun learning about them :)
Thank You Jacco Haasnoot, 😊
Wolves aren't endangered except the Indian wolf and a few others.
My dog, a German Shepherd/Japanese Akita, makes very similar sounds to the Wolf specie.
I’m in admiration of these beautiful, natural creatures : thank God for the program that brought them back into a natural habitat & encourage breeding.

I love all breeds of dogs domestic and wild including the wolf!
I love night wolfs and also normal wolfs
I love 'em! I LOVE 'em!
Majestic creatures.
They're such beautiful creatures
I really wanted to learn something new. I want to learn about the hierarchy, hunting technicks, relationships, pups, Territories, Battles between rival wolves, what’s stereotyped about wolves, stuff like that. No one ever talks about any of that, or they just don’t go deeper. Wolves are unique and different to how people explain them. They are complex and there ways of living is so fascinating. I desperately want to know more but I can’t find any new information that’s interesting and distinctive to wolves.
