Researchers uncover hidden hunting tactics of wolves in Minnesota's Northwoods

The study challenges the classic concept that wolves are solely cursorial predators. Instead, wolf-hunting strategies appear highly flexible, and they are able to switch between hunting modes (cursorial and ambush hunting) depending on their prey.
