I would suggest holding off on hunting until you have a few more wolves as it takes up an entire stamina bar. However both Farming and Fishing are great sources of food and you can use the stamina it provides for other professions and the Campaign.
If you have any questions, feel free to shoot me a message at any time. ^^ Otherwise, I run a wolf giveaway if you're wanting a new friend. I hope you have a good time here!
