This activity introduces learners to wolf behavior and communication.

In this simulation activity, learners will raise a pack of wolves under ten different conditions: without human interference and with human interference.

In this activity, learners simulate a wolf and its habitat and observe what happens when the limiting factors change over time.

In this activity, some learners pretend to be wolves, while the other learners pretend to be the prey of the wolf. The goal of the simulation is to have the wolves work together to survive.

In this activity (p.14-15 of PDF), learners discover the concepts of competition and limiting factors as they relate to plant and animal communities.

In this activity, learners investigate how wolves communicate with each other through different body postures.

In this activity, learners will simulate the interactions between a predator population of gray wolves and a prey population of deer in a forest.
