Wolves

The wolves are animals that belong to the next taxonomy:
Class: Mammalia
Order: Carnivora
Family: Canidae
Scientific name: Canis lupus

There exist four important subspecies for research and ecology: Canis arctos (artic wolf), Canis lupus signatus (Iberian wolf), Canis lupus tundrarun (American tundra), Canis lupus pambasileus (Alaska wolf).

This animal was studied for many scientist along the time but the are three important that made research for conservation and behavior of this animals. 

1 - 2.- Jamie and Jim Dutcher were the pioneers of the conservation of the wolves they took a couple of  male and female wolf  to took care of a pack of puppy wolves. And they saw that this adult wolves taught them how to be wolfs. Then the pack grew up and they had puppies and this puppies had another puppies. And with this program they increased the population of wolves. If they didn't begun this research maybe the wolves had been extinguished. 

3.- Shaun Ellis, also know as "The wolf man", his reseach was based in conservation and behavior of wolves but to do this he had to life with wolves, and became one of them. He made the first well detailed research in wolf behavior. Making it public with the documentary "The man among wolves". With his research another scientist suggest that the behavior of the wolves are more complex than the human behavior.
