"Wolves are highly social animals and live in packs. Worldwide, pack size will depend on the size and abundance of prey. In Yellowstone, average pack size is 10 individuals. The pack is a complex social family, with older members (often the alpha male and alpha female) and subordinates, each having individual personality traits and roles within the pack. Packs defend their territory from other, invading packs by howling and scent-marking with urine.
"Listen to the sounds, notice the smell, and observe the colors of the Mud Volcano area. Much of what you sense comes from sulfur. It is present in many forms: hydrogen sulfide creates the area’s infamous aroma, microbes convert the hydrogen sulfide into an acid that dissolves rocks and soil, and sulfur minerals paint the features in hues of yellow and shades of gray."
