​ABOUT THE WOLF RANK

A child who is 8 years old or is in the second grade is a Wolf, and their adventures are found in the Wolf Handbook.

Like all other new Cub Scouts, a Wolf must first earn the Bobcat badge. After completing the requirements for Bobcat they  go on to complete the requirements for the Wolf rank.
