This belief arises because thelevel of lactate measured after intense exercise ishigh when the blood is acidic.

The largest wolves are Arctic wolves and Gray wolves. They are both 4 - 7 feet long and weigh 175 - 176 pounds at average and also weigh over 200 pounds. The largest wolf everâ¦ that I have heard of was shot and weighed 240 pounds, though that record has not been published on websites or books.

This is the largest wolf subspecies (up to 3 feet tall at the shoulder), but this individual was exceptional - they normally weigh no more than 130 pounds, occasionally up to 150. There is considerable variation in size across wolf subspecies, with more northerly populations usually being larger than more southerly ones.
