The process of a wolf pack splitting in Biaowie¿a Primeval Forest, Poland
8-year-old alpha female ceased breeding. The two sister-packs subdivided their original territory, but their ranges overlapped extensively (49%) for one year after the split, except for May–June, when both new packs reared pups. We propose that food related factors could have been the ultimate cause...
