The beta wolf is the top challenger for the alpha position, hence his roll within a pack is to keep the alpha wolf on top of his game, or to become the alpha, himself. Vying challenges are seldom lethal or even injurious, so a beta victory usually means the alpha and beta simply swap places in the hierarchy. Since the alpha wolf retains the right to breed, the beta is quite motivated.

It is possible for a zebrafish to nip at a betta fish's fins, especially if there is aggression or territorial behavior. It is not recommended to house these species together due to the risk of fin nipping and stress for the betta fish. It is best to keep them in separate tanks to ensure their well-being.
