WOLF

This article appears in Volume V11, Page 353 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: WIL-YAK
WOLF .Size 50X25 in. Is closely allied to the dog tribe and, like the jackals, is found through a wide range of the world,North and
South
  America, Europe and
Asia
 . Good supplies are available from North America and
Siberia
  and a very few from China. The best are the full furred ones of a very
pale
  bluish-grey with fine flowing black top
hair
 , which are obtained from the Hudson Bay
district
 . Those from the United States and
Asia
  are harsher in quality and browner. A few black American specimens come into the market, but usually the quality is poor compared to the lighter furred animal. The Siberian is smaller than the North American and the Russian still smaller. Besides the wolf propera large number of prairie or dog wolves from America and Asia are used for cheaper rugs. In size they are less than half that of a large wolf and are of a motley sandy colour. Numbers of the Russian are retained for
home
  use. The finest wolves are very light weighted and most suitable for carriage aprons, in fact, ideal for the purpose, though lacking the strength of some other furs.
Wolves . value 2s. 6d. to 64s.
