In animal social structuring, an 'alpha' is an individual with highest leadership status. Depending on the animal, an alpha may be male or female. 'Alpha' simply refers to a position of dominance. 'Omega,' on the other hand, is the class of lowest-ranking individuals. In many animal societies, males are typically the occupants of alpha status, but in some cases females are dominant (in big cats, for example, adult males are nomadic, and have no status in the pack whatsoever). There are also some animals in which gender does not influence power status, such as in many reptiles and birds.
