Pack Dynamics refers to the social structure and behavior patterns observed within groups of animals, particularly in species that live and hunt in packs, such as wolves and lions. These dynamics dictate how members interact, establish hierarchies, and cooperate during activities like hunting and caring for young. Understanding pack dynamics is crucial for studying animal behavior and ecology. It helps researchers learn about the roles of individuals within the pack, such as the alpha leader, and how these roles contribute to the pack's overall success and survival.
