where did the wolves in yellowstone orginate?

I am going to guess that you are referring to the reintroduced wolves that have been placed in Yellowstone in the past decade.\n\nMost of the wolves came from Canada with a few orphans from northwestern Montana.

Yellowstone is a land of colorful bubbling mud and spouting geysers, a magical winter wonderland, a place of vast scenic beauty, and the best place to photograph wildlife in the lower 48 states. Without venturing far from your car, you can photograph bighorn sheep, bison, pronghorn antelope, moose, deer, elk, bears, pelicans, trumpeter swans and other animals and birds. Great vistas, an extraordinary canyon, waterfalls, wildflower filled meadows, and spectacular thermal areas beckon your camera. \n\nWhen to Go\nSummer\n   Yellowstone is a very popular park and most people visit Yellowstone in July and August. Traffic is terrible; lodging and camping sites are hard to find. If you must visit in the summer, consider staying in a gateway town or beyond. If you get sick of the traffic jams and crowds, you might want to spend more time in the surrounding National Forests. The wildlife is not as abundant, but there is plenty of it. Redrock Lakes northwest of the park is a good area for wildlife. For gorgeous scenery, you can't beat the Beartooth Scenic Byway. Another alternative is to hike into the back country for some respite from the crowd. Summer, though, has the best weather and glorious wildflowers. \n\n\nhttp://www.phototravel.com/yellow.htm

The Rocky Mountains are in Montana, Idaho, Colorado, and other SW states.  The Ozarks are in Missouri.

Yes. It is a bit of a worry as its is displaying signs of 'grumbling'. If you are interested, there has been a volcanic eruption before which is potentially the size if Yellowstone blows it top. It happened 60-65Ma ago and is one of the possible reasons the Dinasaurs died out. \n\nIf and when Yellowstone goes, there is a very good chance that pretty much most of the US is going to be destroyed by either the flowing lava or the gases released into the atmosphere.\n\nAnyway I have provided you a link to the above mentioned Deccan Traps.

There are three species of wolves in the world.  the gray wolf (Canis lupus), the red wolf (Canis rufus) and the Ethiopian (or Abyssinian) wolf, (Canis simensis).  There are five subspecies of the gray wolf in North America.  Wolves can also interbreed with coyotes and domestic dogs to create hybrids.

In the mountainous regions. Particularly, the Rockies, in Alaska, in the Tetons, in parts of Vermont and New Hampshire.

1) The largest species of wolf is the grey wolf.\n\n2) There is already a species of wolf in Africa, and it has been there for over 5 million years. This is the Ethiopian wolf, and it is currently far more endangered than the grey wolf. It is reasonably expected t become extinct within the next 50 years.\n\n3) There is also another species of wild dog in Africa called, African WIld Dogs. Isn't that an original name. African Wild Dogs are also seriously threatened due priamrily to the introduction of diseases from domestics dogs.\n\n4) Assuming you could successfully introduce grey wolves into Africa you would almost certainly cause the extinction of both the Ethiopian wolf and the African Wild Dog. This is why actual scientists don't simply move species around without doing a lot of research on the potential effects.\n\n5) Grey wolves could only possibly survive in the very southernmost part of Africa. Grey wolves are temperate animals and they can not tolerate high temperatures, This is why wolves are restricted to Northern India and the US and have never live din Mexico or Southern India. They simply can not hunt on warm days. You MIGHT be able to introduce grey wolves to South Africa and Libya, but that would be the absolute limit of their potential range on the continent. Grey wolves could not tolerate the heat across 90% of the continent.\n\n6) Grey wolves may have strong jaws but they are weak compared to lions and hyaenas and comparable to African Wild Dogs.\n\n7) No wolf in the world could possibly outrun a lion, that is sheer fantasy.\n\n8) Grey wolves would have absolutely no chance defending themselves against hyaenas. African Wild Dogs have evolved to form packs of 10-20 adults to give them a fighting chance against hyaenas and they live in burrows. The largest grey wolf packs consist of less than 8 adults and grey wolve slive above ground. Grey wolves would be exterminated in short order by hyaenas.\n\n9) Wolves can’t live in jungles. Wolves have never lived in jungles. Wolves are temperate forest and grassland predators. They can not survive in jungles.\n\n10) It amazes me that you call yourself a student and claim to be concerned about wolves yet apparently know nothing about their behaviour or habitat requirements, or about related species already native to Africa.\n\nIn summary, any plan to introduce wolves to Africa is simply silly. Sorry, there’s no other way to describe it. It is hideously flawed on every level.

All predators are. In Europe, after they killed all the wolves, the wild live-stock degenerated.

*Hunting a bit* The center of a wolf's universe is its pack, and howling is the glue that keeps the pack together. Some have speculated that howling strengthens the social bonds between packmates; the pack that howls together, stays together. Whether howling together actually strengthens social bonds, or just reaffirms them, is unknown.\nWe do know, however, that howling keeps packmates together, physically. Because wolves range over vast areas to find food, they are often separated from one another. Of all their calls, howling is the only one that works over great distances. Its low pitch and long duration are well suited for transmission in forest and across tundra, and unique features of each individual's howl allow wolves to identify each other. Howling is a long distance contact and reunion call.\nTypes of Howls\nPups howl for just about any reason as they learn the social skills of a pack. Indiscriminate howling is usually not a dangerous proposition for young pups, since they tend to be stuck at a rendezvous site that is relatively far from the neighbors, who likely have pups of their own to raise. More importantly, replying to an adult that howls often leads to a meal, since packmates returning with food frequently howl as they near the home site. \n\nLonesome howls are locators so the hunters can find the main pack. When a wolf howls, not only can its packmates hear it, but so can any other wolf within range. These other wolves may be members of hostile adjacent packs that are competitors for territory and prey. Howl too close to these strangers, and they may seek you out, chase you, and kill you. So howling has its costs (running into the opposition) as well as its benefits (getting back with the pack). Consequently, wolves are careful about where and when they howl, and to whom they howl.\n\nConfrontational howls are when a stanger gets in the territory of another pack. This behavior points to the second main purpose of howling: helping to maintain spacing between rival packs. When one pack howls, others nearby may reply. Very quickly, all the wolves know each other's location. By advertising their presence, packs can keep their neighbors at bay and avoid accidentally running into them.\n\nBut the use of howling in spacing is fraught with difficulties. If one pack howls, all its neighbors (within range, of course) now know its location. What if they choose to keep quiet, sneak up, and attack the howlers? Deliberate attacks by one pack on another have been seen, so there are costs to advertising your location. These risks have to be balanced with benefits. An example of this trade-off is sometimes seen during winter, when packs are traveling nomadically within (or even outside) their territories. A pack sitting on a fresh prey kill is very likely to stake its claim and howl, particularly if a stranger howls nearby. As time passes and the kill is consumed, the wolves become less invested in the site and are less likely to reply. Eventually, they may respond to a stranger's howling by silently moving away.\n\nChorus howls are howling with the pack together. \nPack of wolves howling Rather than using howls with a single pure tone, wolves howling in a chorus use wavering or modulated howls. The rapid changes in pitch make it difficult to follow one individual's howls if several others are howling simultaneously.\n\nSo it all boils down to howling is the way that wolves communicate over long distances...\nhttp://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/wolves/howl.html

Carolus Linnaeus gave the wolf the scientific name Canis lupus...\n\nWolf weight and size can vary greatly worldwide, though both tend to increase proportionally with higher latitudes. Generally speaking, height varies from 0.6 to 0.9 meters (24 to 35 inches) at the shoulder, and weight can range anywhere from 25 to 65 kg (55-143 pounds), making wolves the largest among all wild canids....\n\nThere are 13 living subspecies, and 2 recently extinct subspecies.\n\nIf U need more information... Can contact me. Will try to answer all your Question...

I would cautiosly ask the wolf and then immediately start going to other sources to ask also. Never trust just one source especially the people in pulpits for that is where most wolves are found. Whenever I want to study out a particular issue, I try to prove my beliefs wrong. Most people look fot the answers that they want to hear and in doing such will never find the truth if they are wrong. You must be willing to hear other opinions and know that there is a possibility that you may need to change your belief on the topic your searching.
