Wolves love to play. They chase each other and roll around the way dog puppies do. Pups have been observed playing with "toys" like bones, feathers, or the skins of dead animals. They "kill" the toys over and over again and carry them around as "trophies." As they get bigger they begin to hunt small animals, like rabbits. This is all good practice for the day they join the pack for their first real hunt for large animals.
