Sometimes, the tribe's dog, Droopy Ear, can be a real nuisance. While playing in the tranquil forest, all of a sudden, he stumbles upon a lost wolf cub and decides not only to be his friend but also bring him back to the camp, but, how is that even possible? After all, a dog is only related to the wolf, the feral pack is very protective of its members. Can Yakari explain to the wide-eyed dog that a wolf simply cannot live near men?
