Porcupine Ridge let's give it a shot

Hello porcupines! (Yes I am calling us this, hehe). Hopefully you all have had a chance to read over the unique ranking system we're experimenting with here at the ridge. Our first pack hunt roll was a success, so I thought I'd start us a thread that takes place after the kill. This is a great opportunity for a wolf to rise to the beta male spot as a lot of dominance rituals happen around feeding time ;) This thread is mandatory if your wish your character to have the chance to establish themselves in the pecking order. Otherwise, they'll be assumed to be standing off to the side waiting.

The snow was tramped with cloven tracks and paw prints. It was redddened with blood and strewn with long white hairs. The pack had come together to howl of their claim on this ridge, and then had come together again to fell their first mountain goat, with Capriccio landing the killing bite as the rest of the pack hamstringed and hobbled their prey. They were yet strangers among each other, but already the black wolf's chest swelled with pride in his wolves. His joy was such that he thought to stand back and allow them to eat first, but now was not the time for his benevolent generosity.  

Capriccio had risen to the rank of alpha female by virtue of being the only female the pack had, but no beta male had yet been determined. Taggarik knew, as did any proper wolf, that hierarchy was perhaps never more obvious or necessary than when it came to food. From top of the ladder to the bottom, the wolves would eat. It was one of the perks of leadership that made the burden and stress of responsibility tolerable to those who wore the crown.

The pack was but a fledgling, and here and now the initial hierarchy would be set. So as the black wolf approached the goat he carried himself tall with his tail lifted above his hips, its full length swaying gently, for he was not severe in his assertion of his rank. Capriccio was at his side, and his gray eyes looked to his wolves. None challenged his right to eat first, and so he dug in, seeking out the liver and other choice cuts. He ate until he was full, more out of principle at this important time for the new pack, than his desire to ensure he selfishly took the most he could. Their bellies full, he and Capriccio stood aside to watch.

Who would step forward to eat next? Would they be challenged?

Who would become the first beta male?

I've gone ahead and assumed no one is interested in challenging Taggarik at this time based on previous interactions. If you would like the opportunity to do so, please do not hesitate to PM me! I only assumed it this time in the interest of moving things forward enough so that folks can start vying for beta male right away in their replies :)
