A Wolf Huut, from a painting by Snyders. 



Tnc Wolf is common both to the Old and New World, particularly in the immense forests and cold 

 regions of the north. In length he is about three and a half feet, and in height about two and a half. 

 Both externally and internally he resembles the dog, only gaunt and emaciated, with a fiercer and more 

 savage aspect. His common color is a mixture of black, brown, and grey ; but some incline to yellow 

 some are found quite black, and others altogether white; his hair is rough and hard, mixed towards the 

 roots with a kind of ash-colored fur; his eyes open slantingly upward, and the color of the eyeballs is of a 

 fiery green ; his tail is nearly straight. He is strong and agile, but cruel, cunning, and cowardly. When 

 pressed with hunger, however, he becomes daring and ferocious, and will not hesitate to attack man.
