Cold fact for the day... At the Denali National Park in Alaska, there are some 2 million areas of wilderness. No motorized vehicles are allowed there. So in emergencies, Huskies are used in sled teams to be are sent out. A dog team has anywhere from 7 to 10 dogs. These sleds are also used to haul supplies to rangers. Teams may be out in temperatures 45 degrees below zero with blowing snow and could be out all day! Think about that the next time you are snuggling on your couch with a cup of cocoa and your furry friend beside you...
