Wolfs may disperse from their pack anytime they are driven out or leave, there is nonspecific age, but normally males leave more then females to mate since only the alphas can mate in the pack, except for the occasional non-alpha breeding. During the winter is the time most wolves mate, so some may be driven out of the pack or leave to start a new one.

When do baby wolves leave their mother?

The wolf gestation period is about 63 days, and litters usually contain 4 to 6 pups, though they can have as many as 10. Like domestic dogs, wolf pups are born unable to see and hear. Their eyes open at about 2 weeks, at which time they begin to walk. At 3 weeks, they are able to hear. They spend a month cloistered in the den with their mother, after which they will begin leaving the den for short periods of time. In another 2 to 3 weeks, they will be eating mostly meat, which adult wolves regurgitate for them. The pups will be fully weaned at 10 weeks. They will stay in their birth pack until they reach sexual maturity at 2 to 3 years of age. Though wolves live in packs, only the alpha male and alpha female mate and produce pups. The other wolves in a pack, often young adult offspring of the breeding pair, do not mate until they leave their birth pack and find their own territory.
