Wolves are carnivores, but they will also eat other foods. Deer, moose, elk, elkryn, and other big game are usually eaten, as wolves live in a pack, so they can bring them down, but wolves (especially in lean times and the pups) will also eat earthworms, grasshoppers, frogs, and berries.
To avoid using too much energy to catch their food, wolves prey on the weaker members of the herd of prey, such as old, young, or sick animals.
Only in winter, when the prey herds wander and migrate, will wolves eat mice, birds, or fish. It is not often (except in young cubs, who will catch mice as practise for when they are older) that they will eat these, as they wander behind the herds to keep their prey.
Sometimes, wolves will eat carrion. They will even fight off a bear to get meat.
WOLVES ROCK THEY ARE MY FAVE ANIMALS!!!
