Determine who will be the Alpha and Omega of the pack?

Wolves determine who will be the Alpha and the Omega by fighting to the death. The wolves communicate by using body motions to pick the strongest wolves that may sometimes result in fights. After the wolves "discuss" who the strongest wolves are the battles begins. As I said it is the fight to the death which will end as a bloody and very brutal war. The "winner" becomes the Alpha. Now you probably wonder what the Omega is. There is more than one Omega in the pack. An Omega is considered the "low life" of the pack. The Alpha is considered the leader of the pack and the Omega wolves are just "followers" in a hope to survive. The Alpha won't stop being Alpha until he/she dies. When the Alpha dies the cycle restarts.


How do wolves get to alpha?

Usually, 2 wolves would fight for a female, and the winner would mate with her, and they would officially become the alpha's. A wolf can't randomly fight to become alpha, because not all of the wolves are suited for the packs needs. Also, the Beta wolves become the alpha's after one of the alpha's die, or get to old or injured to lead the pack anymore. It all depends on the packs needs! ;)


How do alpha wolves behave?

Alpha wolves behave mostly like other wolves. They play, fight, hunt, all normal. But, one characteristic found in an alpha wolf can be a bit harsh, trying to get their pack to consecrate, or breaking up a fight. They would do anything to keep their pack under control. Sometimes, when a wolf is trying to bump up its rank, the alpha wolf would come along and made sure they stayed in their place!!

Do all wolves mate?

Yes. In the breeding season, when a female is in heat, a lot of male wolves will fight to mate with her. The male wolves fight, and when one of them does get to mate with the female, he guards her, so other wolves know she is taken. However, sometimes, another stronger, older wolf may fight the male wolf, mate with the female again, and stay with her for life.

Could the female wolf with the alpha wolf be called Luna?

Yes, but for females it is harder to become alphas than males because they either have to mate with the alpha male or fight which means that she has to be even stronger than normal because male wolves are generally stronger than females. Though females are faster. -The K10 Yes, there is such thing as an Alpha female. She becomes an alpha when 2 male wolves fight for her love. The winner gets to mate with the female, and they become the alpha pair. (Or Alpha's) Just a version of my answer :) - Wolfsarethebest
