Choice.A

Choice A is correct. "Wolves" is an irregular plural noun. Regular plurals usually add "s" or "es" to the end, but irregular plurals, like "wolves," change the word in a special way. So instead of saying "wolfes," we say "wolves" to talk about more than one wolf.

wolves

Choice.B

Choice B is incorrect because "wolfs" should be "wolves" to be a correct irregular plural noun. Wolves is the plural form of wolf.

wolfs

Choice.C

Choice C is incorrect because the plural form of "wolf" is "wolves," not "wolfes". Irregular plural nouns don’t follow the usual rules for forming plurals, So "wolves" is the correct irregular plural form in this case.

wolfes
