Hunger and hunting

A wolf’s hunger rises over time.

  • Fed: it wanders and rests, and ignores players.
  • Hungry: it hunts the nearest deer within 32 metres, or eats from a nearby carcass. Other wolves within 18 metres join until three are on the same deer.
  • Desperate: it searches up to 96 metres for prey. It will also attack a player standing on a road within 20 metres, if that player is closer than any deer.

A wolf gives up a chase after 25 seconds without gaining ground, or if its prey gets far enough away. After a kill, the hunters eat until they’re full.

When you attack one

A wolf you hit turns on you. Other wolves of its pack within 18 metres join in, whatever their hunger, up to three against you. A wolf remembers who hurt it for 20 seconds.

Wolves never flee.

The corpse lasts 4 minutes. See Skinning.

Spawned wolves

A spawned wolf pack also lives near the south bridge. Spawned wolves are always fed, so they don’t hunt deer or players. They still defend their pack.
