Lifestyle and nutrition
The red wolf lives and hunts in packs of 5-12 individuals (sometimes
more), apparently unifying animals of several generations. Relations
within the pack are usually non-aggressive. He hunts mainly during the
day, pursuing the victim for a long time. Extraction varies from rodents
and lizards to deer (zambar, axis) and antelope (nilgau, garna). Unlike
many dogs, red wolves kill game, not grasping at the throat, but attacking
from behind. Two or three red wolves are capable of killing 50 kilograms
of deer in less than 2 minutes. Refuges of red wolves are usually crevices
of rocks, caves and niches in the slopes; Nor do they dig. Have
developed ears, good swim and jump great - able to overcome long
distance up to 6m people avoid red wolves; captive breeding, but not
tamed. The sound of the red wolves are more varied than those of an
ordinary wolf. Some of these sounds vaguely similar to the singing, for
which the animals are sometimes called "singing mountain wolves"
