I wood say that with Hammy’s head so full of straw it can make him as thick as a brick.

wolves became domesticated dogs that we use as pets and helpers.

Thanks. And obviously I meant Hammy. I wonder how the original Sammy is doing in the parallel world.

Nope, still boring. Sorry, Hammy.But really, any critter can be the hero of a story as long as something provides the conflict.

Wolf attack is not as common in Europe because of the concerted effort to kill them off over the years. The US put them on the endangered list, which still angers people in their habitat area because they feel sheep and cattle are at risk; OTOH without wolves some of the small prey animals like rabbits start overpopulating. You can’t change just one thing. :-)
