Did You find all of them in good constitution? No "scrapie" or BSE? No wolf
far and wide, in Your dreams or somewhere else?

Well- as far as I know there has never been "rabies" on the British Islands.
Did, for that reason, those people over there not fear wolves? No bad tales
in their folkloristic stories?

But- I did make some thoughts too, into this same direction.

Special regards

Fiete.
