They are, though: they're what you get when you confine an animal into an unknown situation and is terrified. Reminding these guys who think themselves as 'alpha' that they share traits with a terrified little puppy frazzles their brains.
The alpha behavior was documented on confined animals, so it is essentially a response to stress.
Wild wolf packs are essentially family groups. Mom wolf and dad wolf start the family and set the rules, kids can either stay and live to eventually take the head of the family, which implies caring for the older, or can go out and set their own families.
Wolves are notoriously caring for their young, sick and elder and conflicts are solved not through violence but ever building bonding.
On the other hand, the implication that the environment that makes them real is effectively prison is deeply sad.
