The seasons that we monitored various packs were late winter (L), summer (S), and early winter (E). We determined PA for two wolves in each pack during every season that a pack was monitored except for summer periods marked as S1. During summer periods marked as S1, only one GPS-collared wolf was present in the pack. We determined prey acquisition rates during all summer periods that we monitored a pack of wolves.
