I started with about 3 fires, and then took my female out to get more only came back with another male and after about a week I have at least 13 dire wolves they make up most of my tamed! Love them! I have some with split states and some with points only placed into one thing so I have speedy ones, melee ones, health ones and some that have points put into different places they are all over level 70 and my highest level one is about level 140. Tame a male and a female get breeding, mutating and be unstoppable. And also you can shoot off the back of them so they are perfect for taming if you put some in melee, a lot in health and a lot in speed!
