Except in LRRH, a Hunter finds the wolf some time later, cuts open it's stomach while it's sleeping, saving LRRH and usually also her grandma...and then they put stones in it's stomach and sew it close. The wolf wakes up but the weight it's so much it can't even move, and dies of hunger.

So it would be "Ruby will die just to turn out to not be quite dead yet, being saved at the last minute".
