In this relationship the interaction between the two animals is a predator and prey relationship. In it, the deer is a prey and the wolf is a predator. So when the wolf eats the deer, it is gaining food and energy from it, while the deer dies and is harmed.

Wolves are mainly hunted for sport, for their skins, to protect livestock and, in some rare cases, to protect humans. Wolves have been actively hunted since 8,000 to 10,000 years ago, when they first began to pose a threat to livestock vital for the survival of Neolithic human communities.

Coywolf (sometimes called woyote) is an informal term for a canid hybrid descended from coyotes, eastern wolves and gray wolves. All members of the genus Canis are genetically closely related because their chromosomes number 78, therefore they can interbreed.

White-tailed deer fill the niche, or role, in ecosystems of both herbivore and prey. They are affected by, and themselves affect, their ecosystem. In forests, they have been described as a “keystone species” because their feeding activity can directly and indirectly affect many plants and animals.

CAUSES OF DEER OVERPOPULATION The main cause is lack of predators. Cougars, wolves, mountain lions… they simply don't exist in the US in the numbers that they once did. Their habitat has grown smaller and smaller, however, this same deforestation that has driven out the predator actually suits the deer better.

Wolves (canis lupus), coyotes (canis latrans), and domestic dogs (canis familiaris) are closely-related species. All three can interbreed and produce viable, fertile offspring — wolfdogs, coywolves, and coydogs. Through DNA analysis, scientists have established that the wolf is the ancestor of the dog.

Wolves have always been one of the most loyal of species in the animal kingdom. They live in packs of around four to nine and create strong social bonds with each other. The grey wolves in particular are eternally loyal to their partner. Only the dominant alpha male and alpha female will breed.

Most North American megafauna went extinct 10,000 years ago because of climate change and human impact. One hypothesis is that the primary food source of the dire wolf, large herbivores, was becoming less common and they were too food-stressed to survive.

The main difference between the two is how they evolved. Wolves evolved in the wild, to live in the wild. Dogs evolved alongside man, they're domesticated, they've been bred for thousands of years to be our companions and partners and to be able to do the tasks we have them help us with.

Protected by the Endangered Species Act, the red wolves initially did well, with an accompanying captive breeding program allowing 42 wolves in total to be released by 1992. Straining at the confines of their habitat, the growing population was subsequently granted more space to roam, ostensibly safe from human harm.

The bodies of deer, moose, zebras, and horses are very similar, and these animals are very closely related. One major difference is that deer and moose have antlers and zebras and horses don't. ... Therefore, herd-living animals do not need the antlers that their loner relatives need for protection.

As its name indicates, the gray wolf typically has thick gray fur, although pure white or all black variations exist. Another species, the red wolf, is a bit smaller. They grow to around 4.5 to 5.5 feet long (137 to 168 cm) and weigh 50 to 80 lbs. (23 to 36 kg), according to the Defenders of Wildlife organization.
