Best Answer

Wolves are carnivours and opportunistic feeders. As a pack they will hunt and run down large prey like elk and deer. They will also hunt small prey like rabbits and squirrels. They will also feed on dead animals, especially in winter. They have also been known to kill rancher's livestock when the opportunity presents itself or the population of their normal prey has been exhausted.
