The Wolf River is a 105-mile-long (169 km) alluvial river in western Tennessee and northern Mississippi, whose confluence with the Mississippi River was the site of various Chickasaw, French, Spanish and American communities that eventually became Memphis, Tennessee. It is estimated to be about 12,000 years old, formed by runoff carving into the region's soft alluvial soil. It should not be confused with The Wolf River (Middle Tennessee) which flows primarily in Middle Tennessee and southern Kentucky. The Wolf River rises in the Holly Springs National Forest at Baker's Pond in Benton County, Mississippi, and flows northwest into Tennessee, before entering the Mississippi River north of downtown Memphis.

Cabe destacar que en este río murió Jeff Buckley. El 11 de septiembre de 1997 el presidente Bill Clinton designó este río como uno de los catorce que integran el sistema de ríos del patrimonio estadounidense. (es)
  • La rivière Wolf est un cours d'eau qui coule dans l'État du Tennessee aux États-Unis et qui se jette dans le Mississippi, rive gauche, à la hauteur de la ville de Memphis. À l'époque de la Nouvelle-France et de la Louisiane française, la rivière s'appelait rivière à Margot. Vers la fin de la période française de la Louisiane, la rivière fut rebaptisée rivière du Loup par les Franco-Louisianais. Ce nom fut anglicisé en Wolf River après la vente de la Louisiane par Napoléon Ier aux États-Unis. (fr)
