Which one of the following is monogamous?

Correct Option

Wolves are known to exhibit monogamous mating behavior. Within a wolf pack, the dominant male and female, often referred to as the alpha pair, typically form a long-term pair bond. This pair is usually the primary breeder for the group, and their social structure supports cooperative care of the young, contributing to pack cohesion.

Incorrect Options

• Walruses (b) are polygynous, where dominant males mate with multiple females during the breeding season.
• Many seal species (c) are polygynous or promiscuous, with males typically mating with multiple females.
• Most deer species (d) are also polygynous, particularly during the rutting season when males compete for access to multiple females.
