As a rule, wolf-mothers train their children to hunt by giving them prey to play with; and now watching the cubs chasing the puppy over the frozen snow and struggling with him, the mother thought: "Let them learn."
Обыкновенно волчихи приучают своих детей к охоте, давая им поиграть добычей; и теперь, глядя, как волчата гонялись по насту за щенком и боролись с ним, волчиха думала: "Пускай приучаются".

The wolf began rapidly working with her legs and nose, looking round to see whether the puppy were coming, but the smell of the warm steam and manure had hardly reached her nose before she heard a gleeful burst of barking behind her.
Волчиха стала быстро работать ногами и мордой, оглядываясь, не идет ли щенок, но едва пахнуло на нее теплым паром и запахом навоза, как сзади послышался радостный, заливчатый лай.

Beyond and to the northward was the cairn that covered Von Winterfeld, surmounted by a cross of steel, and from among the tumbled rocks in the distance the eyes of a wolf gleamed redly.
Дальше, к северу от них, высилась сложенная из камней и увенчанная стальным крестом пирамида, под которой покоился фон Винтерфельд, а вдали, среди разбросанных валунов, красным огнем поблескивали волчьи глаза.
