Yes, they are. They hunt elk, deer, moose, ect. Some times, to protect a pack or a family (almost the same thing), wolves have to kill coyotes and bears, but i don't think they eat them. if they are scarce on prey they MIGHT eat the bear... great question :)

I don't believe a wolf is. A detrivore is an organism the decomposes organic material that is then returned to the earth. Wolves are carnivores, meaning they eat meat. Common detrivorous animals are millipedes, woodlice, dung beetles, dung flies and burying beetles.

this depends on the kind of worm, you most likely mean the common earthworm this is a detrivore but there are other worms that are parasitic in their feeding metheods.
