While the term "boss" isn't typically used, "alpha" is the most common and accurate term to describe the dominant wolf in a pack.
Here's a bit more about alpha wolves:
* Dominance: The alpha wolf is the leader of the pack, and they hold the most power and influence. They get to eat first, mate first, and have the highest status in the pack.
* Both sexes: There can be both male and female alpha wolves, although in some packs a pair of alpha wolves, one male and one female, will rule together.
* Dynamic: The alpha position isn't always permanent. It can be challenged and even changed through fights or competition.
