So I’m cooking up a werewolf adversary for the group and I noticed in the Manwolf’s suggested skills it lists Survival (Forage) 9d as well as Survival (Track) 10d. Now we’ve been around on this in my group and as I’ve understood it, your character has a skill with a rank (Survival Xd) and then can further specialize in any of the skill’s foci. So a PC witch hunter might have Survival (tracking, forage) 7d, meaning that he or she had 7d in the Survival skill and had specialized in both tracking and foraging. The character would not have two skills, one for each specialization, such as listed in the manwolf’s profile.
I know monsters are build by a different set of rules than PCs, but I want to make absolutely sure I’m clear on this one.

The Werewolf has a +1d bonus to Tracking, threat stat blocks have constant bonuses included.
