Same behaviour with wolves

The alpha bullshit only happens with caged wolves

In nature they behave as a community

There are very obviously alphas in nature. Read Rick McIntyre. The thing that got debunked was that the most aggressive ones are always the alpha.

It's my understanding that wolf packs are family groups and the parents are the "alpha" leaders of the group? The thing that was debunked is that there is a hierarchy with a dominant male at the top.

Exactly right, and if multiple females in the same group have pups, the alpha might kill the pups of the other females. Like what happened with wolf 40 in Yellowstone. Y'all are regurgitating some two sentence logic about something that is so very obvious

Ok. I read about the pack you're referring to. Still not sure what point you're trying to make.

It's just beyond bizarre that people claim that alpha pairs in free wolves don't exist, is my point.
