A Wolf's Diet


Wolves are carnivores, (meat eaters) but they will eat other foods too. Their diet ranges from big game, such as elk and moose, to earthworms, berries, grasshoppers, fish, birds and mice. Wolves, sometimes to avoid energy loss, go after small or sick animals that are easy prey.

Wolves can eat every 5-6 hours when there is plenty of food available, or they can feast and live on scraps for 2 weeks when there is less food around.
