Wolves track their prey primarily through their keen sense of smell, which allows them to detect scents left by animals over long distances. They also use their acute hearing to pick up sounds made by potential prey. Additionally, wolves observe visual cues, such as tracks and signs of movement, to locate and follow their targets. This combination of sensory skills enables them to effectively hunt and coordinate as a pack.
