The text you've provided appears to be a combination of two unrelated articles: one about walking canes and another about the wolf species (Canis lupus). Here's a summary of each article in the format requested: **Article 1: Walking Canes** * **Summary:** A walking cane is a long, sturdy rod used for support while walking. It's typically held in the hand opposite to where there is an injury or weakness. * **Key Points:** * Holding the cane in the opposite hand allows users to shift their weight onto it and away from their weaker side as they walk. * Some people prefer to hold their canes on their injured sides, while others prefer to use them in the traditional way. * A famous incident involving a gutta-percha walking cane was the "caning" of Senator Charles Sumner by Preston Brooks in 1856. **Article 2: The Wolf (Canis Lupus)** * **Summary:** The wolf is a large canine native to the wilderness and remote areas of Eurasia and North America. It's known for its distinctive appearance, hunting behavior, and historical association with humans. * **Key Points:** * Wolves are the largest members of their family, with males averaging 43-45 kg (95-99 lb) and females 36-38.5 kg (79-85 lb). * They have a distinctive appearance, with long, bushy winter fur and a predominantly mottled gray color. * Wolves are highly social animals that travel in nuclear families consisting of a mated pair and their adult offspring. * They're apex predators throughout their range, feeding primarily on large wild ungulates but also eating smaller animals, livestock, carrion, and garbage.
