I read the articles on illusion, very good and in depth. It establishes a solid boundaries for handling illusions while still leaving open options for clever thinking. The big one to me is that an illusion "requires" an action, move or standard, in order to interact with it. Until they are interacted with there is no cause to disbelieve/make a saving throw.
In the case of the wolves, some of them seem to think they are real bears. Two at least do not appear to be afraid. I figured they could smell their scent (standard action?) so they were entitled to a will save and could have passed. The first thing I thought of that comes close to illusions and animals was TV. Some animals don't seem to care what is on the screen while others are fascinated. Either way there should be two will saves, one for the auditory sound and another for the figment images. Anyway, it all seems to have bought us some time at the least. Excellent thinking!
