They take an interest in what goes on in their pack and if they've been away for any length of time look to the Beta to learn of what goes on in the pack. (Leaders)

Beta (1-2) - There may be one or two in a pack, one of each gender. They may or may not be mates and are second in command.

Although there may come a time when the challange is serious. (Second in Command)

At one time they may have been the Alpha and usually that is true. However the current Alphas may put others here should it seem right to them.
