  found in oceans around the United States.
  The three most common kinds are the Great
  Hammer head, the Scalloped Hammer head, and the
  Small eyed Hammerhead. All Hammer Head sharks
  are very strange looking. Their heads are

  they are called hammerhead sharks. They range in

• All wolves have different fur patters and
  colors such as white, black, brown and grey. A
  large male wolf can be 3 feet tall and almost 6 ½
  feet long and weighing more than 100 pounds.
  Females are smaller. Strong muscles and long
  legs help them run fast. They have thick, wooly
  fur and big feet. They also have sharp teeth.
  Their favorite prey they feed on is the moose but
  they eat beavers, elk, rabbits and mice too.
  They live in the grasslands, swamps, and in cold
  places too. Wolves can adapt to many habits but
  most live in Canada or Alaska. The wolves travel
  in packs that have a leader and the leader is
  like a king. The pack of wolves help each other.
  They use their faces and ears to show feelings.
  The United States has less than 800 wolves. They
  are larger than an average dog. I like wolves.
