..err.. only get a minute amount of exp for dire wolves at level 11. Deep Forest wolves don't give exp at that point, even though they are a higher CR based on their stats (I think it's somewhere between +10-17 AB from each higher difficulty of wolf). I think their CR has been intentionally reduced to prevent exp gain, while keeping their high-CR stats. >_> So basically it's me and my friends getting violated by 20+ uberwulven for no gain, just in order to travel.
