�WOLF TRIBUTE SPIRITED United in spirit are we The Eagle, Lord of the Skies The Wolf, Ruler of the Forest United in Spirit for all of time Come with me my brother Together we will rule our domain With our powerful strength United in Spirit we will remain Catspaws PLEASE LET US BE WILD AND FREE AS WE WERE MEANT TO BE SEE THE SPIRIT SEE THE SPIRIT OF THE WOLF MAY YOU WALK WITH HIM EVERYDAY FOR THE WOLF WILL SHOW YOU THE WAY TO YOUR HEART AND YOU WILL SAY I WALK IN PEACE LOVE AND HARMONY FOR THE SPIRIT OF THE WOLF IS HERE TO STAY CATSPAWS THE HONOR,BEAUTY AND MAJESTY THAT IS THE WOLF IS A WONDERFUL SPECIES OF THE ANIMAL KINGDOM. HE IS A CREATURE OF GOD'S MAKING JUST AS YOU AND I ARE. HUMANS HAVE NO RIGHT TO DESTORY SUCH A WONDERFUL PRESENCE AS THE WOLF. THEY SHOULD BE SAVED FOR OUR FUTURE GENERATIONS TO LOVE AND ENJOY. WOLVES ARE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CREATURES ON EARTH. THEY ARE GLORIOUS AND GRACEFUL CREATURES. THEY LIVE BY SKILL, AND SMELL, BUT THEY ARE ALSO THE UNDERDOG IN ALL KINDS OF TALES, TRUE AND UNTRUE. THEY ARE MISUNDERSTOOD AND FEARED BY MANKIND. TO LOOK INTO A WOLF'S EYES IS TO LOOK INTO YOUR SOUL. THE WOLF WEEDS OUT THE OLDER AND SICK PREY, THERBY STRENGENTHING THE SPECIES OF THAT PREY. THEY FEED OTHER ANIMALS WITH THE LEFTOVER CARCASS. PUPS ARE BORN IN THE SPRING, USUALLY 5-6 IN A LITTER. THE MOTHER IS FED BY THE OTHER WOLVES BEFORE THE PUPS ARE BORN AND WHILE BEING NURSED BY THE OTHER WOLVES.THEY BECOME YOUNG WOLVES AT 4-6 MONTHS AND SEXUALLY MATURE AT 22 MONTHS. ALL WOLVES PLAY, PUPS AND ADULTS. THEY PLAY JUMPING,CHASING,AMBUSHING AND WRESTLING. OTHER BEHAVIORS INCLUDE MUZZLING, TAIL WAGGING, RASING THEIR PAWS, LICKING FACES AND OF COURSE RUNNING. WOLVES HAVE 5 TOES ON THEIR FRONT FEET AND 4 ON THEIR BACK FEET. HOWEVER WHEN YOU SEE WOLF TRACKS, YOU WILL ONLY SEE 4-TOED TRACKS, BECAUSE THE 5TH TOE (DEW CLAW) IS HIGHER UP ON THE LEG. WHEN RUNNING THEY PUT THEIR BACK PAWS INTO THIER FRONT PAWPRINTS AND THEY FOLLOW A STRAIGHT LINE. THE WOLF STANDS AS A SYMBOL OF COMMITTMENT OF HOME,FAMILY,COURAGE,GRACE AND DIGNITY THEY JUST WANT TO BE LEFT ALONE TO RAISE THEIR FAMILY TO BE FREE WOLVES USUALLY MATE FOR LIFE,UNLESS ONE OF THE APLHA PAIR LOSSES A CHALLENGE FOR DOMINANT STATUS AND IS "DEMOTED". THE DOMINANT PAIR NEARLY ALWAYS HAS PUPS EVERY YEAR. IN PACKS WITH MORE THAN ONE ADULT FEMALE,HALF THE TIME ONLY THE DOMINANT FEMALES PRODUCE PUPS. THE DOMINANT MALE MAKES SURE THE PUPS ARE THEIRS BY THIER ETERNAL VIGILANCE DURING THE WEEKS THAT THE FEMALES ARE RECEPTIVE.
