it got me wondering if wolves get hot spots. seems they would a lot and that would ultimately kill many wolves right? just wondering. my mom didn't know either.

Well, fleas are generally a seasonal thing, although in many climates it doesn't get cold enough to kill them off in the winter.

In general, I think wolves have a lower survival rate in general than domesticated dogs though so it wouldn't surprise me if they do die off, at least some of them, from infections on the skin.
