    This comic is BLASPHEMY. Wolves don't prey on humans! I mean, sure, sometimes wolves hunt down pregnant beasts and only devour the fetus, but still!

    Maybe sorta but they often survive.

    Strangest fucking thing I've read about wolves. Aside from that I love them. Smart animals.

    To play an oddly straight tangent...

    Number of people killed by wolf attacks in 2006: 0
    Number of people killed by vending machines in 2006: 4

    I never thought this statistic would be topical ever again.

    Until it decides to challenge you for the alpha position, and rips your spine out.



    Spine ripping is probably a thing wolves do hell I don't know shit about wolves.

    To be fair, finding your house sigil killed by a rival house's sigil, while the corpse nurses a number of pups of said sigil equal in number to your own children, with a mute albino runt for the bastard you sired while away at war but brought home and raised as your own despite frequent protests by your wife and mother of your rightborn children, is not a sign one should take likely.

    On the other hand, giving your children apex predators for toys is not a decision I would recommend to anyone who actually likes their children.

    You are reading an awful lot into that comment to assume it's scorn, I was just curious.

    My experiments (reproducible by anyone with access to a few ounces of lye, some fatback, and a small gutta-percha flask) show beyond a doubt that one only needs to read 73 pages before quitting a book without besmirching them and their kin. What say you sir? Shall we cross swords at dawn? Or will you yield to my obvious truth?
