Wolves | Hunters of the Winter - Nature Documentary Part 1 & Part 2
Introduction
Wolves are one of the most successful predator species in the world. These iconic animals have been long sought-after residents of the EHR, and today, we are thrilled to bring them to theHunter finally. They are by far the most complex species in terms of AI and animation that we’ve ever introduced, and probably will ever introduce. The crown jewel of theHunter animal kingdom if you like. We can’t wait to hear what you think!

Wolves are legendary because of their spine-tingling howl, which they use to communicate. A lone wolf howls to attract the attention of his pack, while communal howls may send territorial messages from one package to another. Some howls are confrontational. Much like barking domestic dogs, wolves may simply begin howling because a nearby wolf has already begun.

Population and Conservation

Wolves are the most significant members of the dog family. Adaptable gray wolves are by far the most common and were once found all over the Northern Hemisphere. But wolves and humans have a long adversarial history. Though they rarely attack humans, wolves are considered one of the animal world's most fearsome natural villains. They do attack domestic animals, and countless wolves have been shot, trapped, and poisoned because of this tendency.

In the lower 48 states, gray wolves were hunted to near extinction, though some populations survived, and others have since been reintroduced. Few gray wolves survive in Europe, though many live in Alaska, Canada, and Asia.

Wolf Pack Behavior

Wolves live and hunt in packs of around six to ten animals. They are known to roam vast distances, perhaps 12 miles in a single day. These social animals cooperate on their preferred prey—large animals such as deer, elk, and moose. When they are successful, wolves do not eat in moderation. A single animal can consume 20 pounds of meat at a sitting. Wolves also eat smaller mammals, birds, fish, lizards, snakes, and fruit.

Wolfpacks are established according to a strict hierarchy, with a dominant male at the top and his mate not far behind. Usually, this male and female are the only animals of the pack to breed. All of a pack's adults help to care for young pups by bringing them food and watching them while others hunt.
Wolves are highly social animals, which is the key to their success in the wild. This is reflected in theHunter using our new group behavior, new hunting behavior, and the calls they make.

Behavior
Pack Behavior
A wolf pack in theHunter has a three-level hierarchy, which is visible in their unique animations. Each bag has one or two Alphas, a bunch of Betas making up the bulk of the group, as well as Omegas. Besides, there is always one lone wolf at the bottom of the hierarchy. When you pick up a howling call on your HunterMate, it will always be the Alpha of the pack.

Chasing
Wolves are top of the food chain predators, and they will be chasing some animals that get too close to them. So, next time you are stalking a group of Rocky Mountain Elk, decide to take a shot and raise your rifle, don't be baffled if you see the deer spooking and running away. A couple of moments later, you will surely see a pack of wolves running after them.

Carcasses and Feeding
Where there are wolves, you might come across bodies of dead animals that wolves usually prey on. Those carcasses are spawned randomly and act as bait sites, so don't be surprised when you see a group of hungry wolves nibbling on their downed prey, all according to their group hierarchy. Stay a minute and watch them while they are it, it is truly fascinating!

It is possible to harvest these carcasses, but they will not occur in your hunting statistics.
