Hi, Neutron 189!
About Wolves I do not really know much. One thing is that they are very nice and tender to their own kind. Sweden have a population of wolves but they are living in the upper half of the country. Some have been seen in the most southern parts too but those are almost always lone wolves seeking new territory.
I read that you are interested in padlocks. I have spent much time daydreaming about the construction of a padlock really only consisting of a very strong box in steel with a hole in it through which one would fiddle with something to open it. And since most thieves are fools it would be fool proof. I think the first padlocks ever made was really simple in construction. I like simplicity. I may have a padlock but I am not collecting them for what they are. Only because they are made of metal and I collect scrap metal.
I do not understand what you mean by "plastic safe". And back to the padlocks. Do you collect all kinds of padlocks? Or do they have to meet some kind of criteria to be allowed entrance. From now on I will keep my northern eyes open to padlocks.

Well. I collect any pad locks that look intresting, Usually, I wont buy pad locks 2 of the same kind. By plastic safes, I mean little toy safes. Most of the pad locks I find are either, Unquie, Or intresting. ^_^

I like wolves. (Along with many other creatures.) I honestly don't see why anyone wouldn't. I'm trying to find a publisher for a book I wrote about a werewolf child, and it was fascinating to research about wolves' hypersensitivity, as well as their loyalty to other wolves, complex societies, and excellent knowledge of territory. There aren't any native wolves in Australasia, though.

Y'all should have lived with me in northern Arizona. In the winter, wolves would come down from the mountains into the housing area and raid garbage cans.
One morning, I was in a hurry to get to work, ran out the front door, and encountered three wolves a few feet away from me. I thought I waas dead, but they just snarled and jumped over the fence.
One night, I heard a noise at the front door and looked out the window. There was a wolf on the porch,which ate most of a five pound bag of bird seed.
On another occasion, I was out hiking, picking up small garnets from an ant hill when some movement caught my eye. I thought it was just two large dogs coming down the mountain. Turned out to be two wolves. And WHITE ones, at that.
I moved a few hundred feet away, they followed me. I moved again. They followed. We played hide-and-seek for an hour or so. When I went back down the hill to the housing area, they disappeared.
Later, I told some friends about them but was afraid they would think I was crazy when I said the wolves were white. But these guys had seen them too, and said there used to be three of them.

This was at Fort Defiance, on the Navajo Reservation. We also had lots of coyotes, black widow spiders, tarantulas, brown recluse. I even saw a gila monster close to my house. They aren't supposed to be that far north or at that altitude.
When I first went there, I went hiking one day. It was warm and the snow was melting. I was intrigued by some bear tracks in the mud, until I noticed that the tracks were so fresh that they were beginning to fill up with water.
The tracks were heading south; I headed north, and in a hurry.

My dad's an idiot, because he often goes bushwalking alone. (And even more so because he went bushwalking alone in Canada last year or so.)
Luckily we don't have anything around here that would prey on humans. But I reckon it's unfair of people to hunt down animals because of competition and mis-understanding.
If more people would try to understand wolves and bears etc, then the world would be such a better place.

I agree, Wolves pwn

A few months ago, I knew a girl who had a female wolf hybrid that she had got from a local animal shelter, oddly enough. --apparently she had been found in North Carolina, and had been transferred to an adoption shelter here in SC. The first few times that I spent with her, she was ok, however she was at the age that wolves stop acting like dogs, and begin to act like wolves.
The next time I saw her, I reached down to scratch her above the tail, and she protested very vehemently( Wolves are much more demonstraive than dogs), and that was the last time that I saw her and her owner.
Also, I believe that her owner was lax in discipline, ( Her owner told me she had been counter surfing, and also decided to make her owner's bed her own) and was trying to assert her leadership, which is a bad thing considering her owner was also female.
