Wolf 586M (Mollie's) & Wolf 715F (Alpha), 641M (Alpha) and 775M (Agate Creek)

"As 2011 progressed, mortality resulting from intraspecific conflicts had a marked impact on Agate Creek pack structure. 

Regular trespasses by the Blacktail, Lamar Canyon, and Mollie’s packs during fall and early winter resulted in the death of four collared wolves (alpha female #715, alpha male #641, #586M, and #775M) and the possible death of three others"

"In early winter, the pack [Lamar Canyon] likely interacted with the neighboring Blacktail Deer Plateau and Agate Creek packs; one encounter ended with a fatal attack on the Agate Alpha Female."

Wolf 636M (Alpha Male of Mary Mountain)

"In early December, Mollie’s pack traveled to Hayden Valley where they encountered the Mary Mountain pack and killed the alpha male #636. The tracking plane arrived just minutes after this interaction occurred and observed #636M dead in snow covered with blood and Mollie’s pack leaving the area about a half-mile away. "

Canyon Pup

"A female pup was killed by the Blacktail Plateau pack when the Canyon pack ventured into Mammoth in late December."
