- He showed us a wolf skull. From just eyeballing it it looked like that could easily tear apart a buffalo skin with it's razor sharp teeth.
- There are many mountains here that peak over 10,000 feet high.
- 17 rivers that cross the Oregon trail.
- They also have a grand canyon that is over 20 miles long.
- There is a lake that is over 10,000 feet high.
- You can put Rhode island and Delaware and you will still have space left over in Yellow stone.
- There are many tree's and thick forest that can be hard to truck threw.
- Large wagon trains could almost be called as a moving town because it would hold many animals and over 1,000 people.
- The wagons were as small as a car. They would have to keep the weight under 1 and a half ton.
- They would platy a game called buffalo chips and they would play that at night.
- They were black bears, brown bears, wolf, coyote, buffalo, and there were even mountain lions. So just think how hard these were to get by if you saw one by the trail or on the trail sleeping were you where going.
- They would travel threw living Eco-systems.
- They would wear wool to keep them warm. It also would keep them warm when they are wet and it is raining.
- The trip is more than 2 thousand miles long.
- They animals along the trip will get in your way and even harass you.
- Think what you would do if you were walking around with sheep because all those predators would easily be able to kill your sheep.
- The coyotes stand less than 2 feet.
- A wolf is as big as a yard stick.
- That would definitely scare me if I saw a wolf.
- You are going to be followed by animals but they will probably steal your animals at night.
- You can look at the ears to find out what they are. Either a wolf or coyote.
- The coyote has the biggest ears.
- Even though the wolf can take down a bigger animal unlike a coyote witch is like half it's size.
- A wolf has a dish shape head and have really big heads compared to the size of the body.
- There body is more tight and strong and compact rather the being big and fat like his head.
- If we went from the wolfs head to hip to feet and back to head that would make a square. But if we did that to a coyote then it would be a rectangle.
- That would be another way to tell witch one is which.
- The coyote will lye on the ground and fake being hurt and then maybe the it can attack you or your dog. Then maybe you will give it food. They would have to be smart and clever like this because they were small and could not kill to much stuff.
- I guess that they trails would be big enough and beat down enough so that the wagons could pass and so that the wagon would not hit the tree's.
- Wyoming contains more than the Oregon trail than any other state.
- There are even like land marks like broken rocks or signs that are land made.
- There where holes in the ground that was almost 2 feet deep from the wagons.
- They coyotes had back teeth like use. They also had K-9 teeth.
- The teeth of the coyotes could take of all the meet on a chicken wing.
- A wolf pack could have as many as 24 wolves in a pack.
- If you see animals above you circling that means that they are going to dive down and eat it.
- The coyotes grow winter coats that keep them warm in the winter.
- When a coyote is attacking a sheep then a wolf will probably beat the coyote to it and either run it off or kill it before it can get the sheep.
- If it was 2 bears against 24 wolves the bears would probably win.
- A wolf eats about 6,882 pounds of meat in 2 years.
