It's not particularly advisable here on RoW, though we do allow it. Wolves have a natural drive to procreate, just like every other animal. However, that does not mean they go around having puppies willy-nilly; there are some important bits of information to take into consideration before your characters starts on the road to parenthood.

Things to take into consideration
· Wolves rely on the pack they live in to survive; doing something—like having pups—without the permission of their leaders could cause tensions and result in your character being kicked out of the pack.

· Wolves are accustomed to a social hierarchy. They respect their leaders and the tradition of only leaders breeding in the pack. So typically, if a leader says no, their orders will be followed.

· It takes a pack. Yes, that saying applies to wolves as well. It takes an entire pack to raises pups properly, which is why only one pair will breed in a pack per year. The entire pack is involved in the raising of the pups, so there are not enough resources for multiple litters.

· My wolf is a lone wolf! Congratulations, the life of a lone wolf is difficult. It is hard enough for one adult wolf, nevermind one with a few pups following it around all the time. Survival rates are minimal.

While we encourage characters to do what feels natural, we also want to stress the importance of realism. Usually one couple per pack breeds a year, and that couple is typically the leading pair. Lone wolves by nature do not breed because they are unable to properly take care of their young.
