Arctic wolves can make for good hauling animals and decent attack animals, if you can keep them fed. While they are more wild than a [[husky]], meaning they create more [[filth]] and need to be retrained, timber wolves will not be attacked by other predators. You can feed them off meals, and wolves are actually more efficient than huskies when it comes for hunger rate. However, you'll need raw meat or [[kibble]] to train them.

The arctic wolf is a pack hunter but it's often seen alone or in pairs in-game. They are almost identical to timber wolves, differing only in habitat, resistance to cold temperatures and coloration.

They live in boreal forests, cold bogs, tundra, ice sheets, and sea ice.

Diet

Arctic wolves feed on raw meat, corpses, meals, any processed foods, and kibble. When especially hungry, they will frequently attempt to attack, kill, and eat pets or even colonists for food.

Analysis

Arctic wolves can make for good hauling animals and decent attack animals, if you can keep them fed. While they are more wild than a husky, meaning they create more filth and need to be retrained, arctic wolves will not be attacked by other predators. You can feed them off meals, and wolves are actually more efficient than huskies when it comes for hunger rate. However, you'll need raw meat or kibble to train them.

Cougars and panthers are easier to tame, need to be retrained less often, and carry more in a single stride (at the same movement speed). They are also stronger in combat, all at the cost of 11% more hunger. However, these cats tend to spawn in warm biomes, while wolves spawn in cold ones.
