Best Answer

yes.

Wolves will eat fish in many parts of their range. During the salmon run on the west coast of the states, most of the food chain is based on eating salmon and both wolves and bears eat a lot.

There has been much research done on salmon fishing by wolves in Alaska and has been well documented. Wolves will scavenge from kills and washed up food from the sea, but in many parts of the world they have been seen actively hunting.

This article is about salmon eating in Alaska. I got it up just putting your question into Google.

They have been watched fewer times eating fish in Europe but it does still happen
