What do wolves eat? That's a question that's both easy and complicated to answer. Wolves are opportunistic carnivores, meaning they primarily eat meat to survive. Location and the current season often play a significant role in what their prey is, creating a lot of diet variability. In the Arctic tundra, it's common for wolves to hunt caribou and musk oxen during the winter and snowshoe hair in summer. Here in Minnesota, wolves tend to eat more whitetail deer and moose in the winter months. Then

Although classified as carnivores, wolves may sometimes follow an omnivorous diet. They can eat meat, eggs and even fruit! This time of year, pumpkins are a special treat for our ambassador wolves.🎃 #wolffact | Wolf Conservation Center
