Wolf ranking and roles

Wolves are sometimes known as "majestic creatures"

The alpha is usually a male, but can sometimes be a female as well. The alpha or alpha couple (alphas) is in charge of the pack. The leaders.

The beta wolf is the second in command. The Beta will take over if something happens to the Alpha.

The Delta wolf is the third in command. Delta's take control of training when the alphas and betas are too busy.

The lead warriors take commands directly from the alphas or betas. The are the captain/general in charge of the warriors.

The warrior wolves of the pack fight of enemy packs and other dangers. They risk their lives for their pack.

The hunting wolves gather food for their pack.

The healer wolf will be sent if another wolf gets injured during a fight. They basically look after them and protect them. The healers mostly stay away from fighting though. Some call them doctor wolves.

The omega wolf is the lowest ranking wolf in the pack, and usually eats last. They can either be male or female. They will usually stay and look after the pack's pups.

The wolf pups are the youngest of the pack. They usually stay in the den. Once they are older they are taught(trained) how to hunt and survive.
