wolves usually stalk old or sick animals, but they do not always catch what they stalk. they may go days without food. sometimes only one out of twelve hunts are successful. but the way they eat stays the same. the alpha male and female feed first. then the other members feed. sometimes (especially if the prey they have killed is large) wolves may store food and come back that day to feed on it. wolves have very sharp teeth which helps them tear large chunks of meat from a dead animal. they will eat up to 2/7 their body weight. wolves will also swallow food and then bring it back up for pups to eat.
