Early Wolf Research Wasn’t “Wrong”, It Was Often Read the Wrong Way

The familiar “alpha wolf” story didn’t appear out of nowhere, but it often came from captive settings and packs made of strangers, conditions that can inflate conflict.

Read wolf science with context, and you’ll spot the difference between solid findings and popular myths.
