Wolves are predators and live in many regions. They have more chance to appear in winter than in other seasons. Wolves are social animals that live in groups. One on one, an armed dwarf will likely win with minor injuries, but if a pack gangs up, the hapless dwarf is in deathly trouble. A hunter will have troubles with a pack of wolves, because (s)he can spend all his bolts on 3 - 4 wolves and then charge butting wolves with his crossbow. A sure way to kill himself. Hunters usually are either attacked by or try to hunt packs of wolves then they are present, what usually results in their dead, so hunting while a pack of wolves is present is unrecommended, unless you first dispatch the wolves with your militar dwarves. Hunting with meele weapons may also help, as differently from other animals wolves charge at you rather than running away.
In Adventure mode, wolves are common ambushers in random encounters that will occur across the world map. Even a pack of them should be easily dispatched by an inexperienced adventurer, provided he is suitably equipped.
