“Wolves are highly social animals that live in packs. A pack is an extended family group comprised of a the breeding, or βalphaβ male and female pair and some of their subordinate offspring and current pups from one or more years.”
They’re highly social in the same way that humans are. People go to work, cooperate with one another to make a living and maybe create something new, but it’s entirely possible to do that for purely utilitarian reasons – it’s hard to make a living without earning money from someone who has a lot of it. After work hours, all bets are off. Some wolves just work better alone.
That’s the perfect image of me, right there. Defensive aggression. Lowered head, tucked tail, flattened ears, hackles raised, and teeth bared. Aggression born out of fear.
That wolf is afraid, and it’s hoping that its teeth will scare the threat away. That wolf doesn’t want to get hurt again.
What do you think, Dead Flowers? Does that sound like you too? Or am I off the mark? This picture could mean a number of things.
Dead Flowers- I think you’ve started a trend with this whole “lone wolf” theme on SP. I’m noticing more lone wolf type of posts from others and new wolf/fox usernames / members popping up. π

Have you found the reason?
The raw nature of me. You’ll see it if you come too close to me.
It doesn’t transpire
So…you’ll bite people’s heads off if they get too close? π
I wish I were a ferocious beast. I used to be. But now I’m like a weak little porcupine that curls up in a ball…
But aren’t wolves pack animals?

Not all wolves are. Some get thrown out of the pack and they instead go make it on their own and try form their own pack.
And some prefer to be alone of they lose trust in other wolves. Just like I’ve lost trust in people.
So have I. Living in a human world fucking sucks when you have no hope in humanity and no longer trust humans.

I’m calling my pack forwards π
There’s also a new member named Flowers. She isn’t “dead” yet. Unless, that’s you too.
