I thought for years that the wars were just cooked up, to kill a few folks and keep the population in control.

You thought Hitler and the Nazis were made up or exaggerated? Or the USSR's policy of spreading communism by any means?

Someday, check into the clan habits of the wolves, they are interesting. Some never take a mate and the group will often have many Uncles, who are wolfless, but help care for the young of the clan.

I will - they sound darling. Very smart species to consider their ability to feed their young. Smarter than many humans today! I'll look into quail too -thanks for the ideas.

That is not quite how I meant it, I am not one of the anti crowd.

I still have nightmares about hitler and have never stopped in my attempts to wake folks up to the danger of russia and the communists, which we see very well today.

I read my first wolf book by accident, at the same time that I had taken in a month old Samoyed pup.

What ever the wolf did in the book, Snowball did at the same age.

So I still read wolf stories.

I never understood why people were afraid of the Samoyed dog, but many that I suspected of being less than desirable were scared to get out of their cars, at our place.
