Chat	You start a friendly chat, trying to look as harmless as possible.

A beautiful anhinga clings to a branch, its eyes trained on the water below as it looks for prey.
Scare	You leap at the bird, nearly managing to pull it from its perch. It flies up in a flurry of feathers and you begin to give chase, paws sinking into the shallow, muddy water. Its calls of annoyance go ignored; you're having far too much fun to give up now! It quickly changes direction, careening over your head too quickly for you to keep up. As it puts distance between you, one of its feathers lets loose and floats to land on your head. A trophy!	+1 Anhinga Feather

	You're in the mood for squirrel today! You almost manage to snatch it, but at the last moment it darts away and races up a tree. A very comfortable looking tree, in fact... you may just take a nap and trap the little bastard up there for a while. Serves it right.	+3% Energy

	Surely the bird won't lead you astray? It goes deeper and deeper into the territory with no signs of stopping. Finally you have to stop, feet sore from trekking for so long. The bird doesn't even glance back in your direction. Maybe it didn't mean for you to follow it...	-2 HP

A dall sheep leaps across your path, too busy focusing on keeping its footing to notice you. Mutton on the menu, perhaps?
Race	You leap after the sheep, and initially it looks frantic and tries to zig zag away from you. When it realizes you don't intend to pounce and only want to run alongside it, it pushes faster.

The whooping call of a devil diver pulls you to the nearby water, and you watch as it flies into the air, clearly disturbed by something.
Ignore	There's not use getting involved with bird quarrels. They're strange creatures anyway. You sniff along the bank instead, coming across an empty turtle shell. Its occupant is long dead, so may as well make some use of it.	+1 Turtle Shell
	You have no desire to get involved with whatever is going on, so you keep to your path. You trail off towards the shore along your way, hoping for a goodie or two, but the only thing you get for your efforts is muddy paws.	N/A

There's humans here! They've set up a funny cave and talk loudly in a circle. A delicious smell drifts from their funny box...hmm!
Sneak	The humans are too busy talking to notice you. Time to see if they have anything useful. You sniff around and land the jackpot. Sweet! Time to leave before they notice you!	?1-4 SC
	You keep your distance, checking the area carefully. You find a bag but it's closed tightly and impossible to open. When you shove it aside in frustration, you notice there is something shiny underneath.	?5 SC
	The humans are probably too busy to notice you, right? You make a quiet approach, but the humans aren't nearly as dumb as they look. They leap up and begin shrieking, waving sticks at you. Yikes! Time to leave. You manage to escape without any injuries. Phew!	+2 HP
	You approach the bags and backpacks left a bit further from the tent. Constantly keeping an eye on the humans makes it hard to focus on your task. All of the bags are tightly closed, and it's not easy to take anything out. Fortunately, you're lucky to find some meat that's been prepared to be eaten later, but you quickly gulp it down. You hear footsteps! Time to run!	+4 HP
	Stealth isn't your strong trait today. The humans spot you as you try to approach, and before you can even get close they're shouting and running toward you. Abort mission!	N/A
Grab the Box!	Every wolf knows humans are slow and dumb. You can take that box easily! Before they can react, you've snatched the box and disappeared beyond their reach. You rip it open and devour the contents. You feel... Refreshed!	+5 HP
	Every wolf knows humans are slow and dumb. You can take that box easily! Before they can react, you've snatched the box and disappeared beyond their reach. You rip it open, finding the source of the tasty smell. Heck yeah!	+1 Meat Chunks [Medium]
	Every wolf knows humans are slow and dumb. You can take that box easily! Before they can react, you've snatched the box and disappeared beyond their reach. You try to get into it, but it won't reveal its secrets no matter how hard you try. Ugh! Stupid human things.	N/A
Season(s): Summer

A tiny bird sits on a nearby bush, observing you as its head tilts in curiosity.
Play	You sit in front of the bird, letting out a soft whine of excitement. Your playful intent must be clear, because the bird flies up and playfully circles above your head. It beckons you to follow, and shows you a useful treasure. What luck!	+1 Bone
	You approach slowly, taking care not to scare the bird. After a while, you softly poke it with your nose. The bird takes to the air, teasingly circling above your head. You begin to chase it, feeling like a puppy again.	+3% Energy
	You approach, mirroring the finch's curiosity. Your wagging tail and wide smile inivte the bird to play, but the bird is wary of your sharp teeth and flies off...	N/A
Follow	You observe the bird for a while, but it quickly flies away. Intrigued by its destination, you decide to follow. Expecting to find eggs or perhaps its young chicks, you discover something far better and much more satisfying.	+1 Small Doe Carcass

The beautiful sight of lavender grass swaying gently in the wind, the buzzing of bees, and the serenity surrounding you make you want to stay here for a while.
Roll	All the scents and the atmosphere is so irresistible that you start rolling in the lavender with gusto, feeling great. You definitely needed that today!	+1 HP
	This moment is too good not to have some fun. You roll in the lavender, bathing in all the wonderful scents, having the best time! Suddenly, you feel something different from the grass, yet familiar, so you get up to check it out.	+1 Herb
Look Around	This place is so full of various scents that you can't decide which one to follow first. You spend some time looking around, and finally, you find a small meat chunk, poorly hidden under a thin layer of dirt and a few rocks. Apparently, someone stashed it with the intent to return later, so they're going to have a surprise when they come back.	+5 HP
	The calm and serene atmosphere of this place doesn't change your plans to comb it carefully. The mix of various scents gives you some hope for treasures that may be hidden here. You sniff and dig around for a long time, but with no results, you finally give up.	N/A
Season(s): Spring

What a sight! Lots of huge, fresh, and almost perfectly round pumpkins are lying around, ready to be tended to.
Eat	You lower your head to take a bite. While you'd prefer something more meaty, it's good to have some variety once in a while. Not the best, really, but it tastes like fall. A familiar scent reaches your nose, and you quickly recognize something useful for your herbalist growing alongside the pumpkins.	+1 Random Herb
	The scent is irresistible. It's not your usual choice for food, but you take a bite and don't regret it. Hmm, tastes like fall! You devour one of the pumpkins, feeling satisfied and full of energy.	+3 HP +3% Hunger
Season(s): Autumn

Big balls of snow are stacked on top of each other and seem to be dressed in human things. What a strange thing to do!
Dig Around	Maybe the snow is hiding some goodies! You dig around and unearth some cones. Perfect!	?1-5 SC
	Maybe the snow is hiding some goodies! You dig around, but the only thing you get is a muzzle full of snow. Drat! The snow does feel good at least, and leaves you feeling invigorated.	+3 HP
	Maybe the snow is hiding some goodies! You dig around hopefully but only get cold and wet from your efforts.	N/A
Investigate	You pad around the funny creation, trying to figure out its purpose. It seems like it's here to just...exist. How strange! You reach up and grab the carrot in your mouth. What a waste of a perfectly good carrot!	+1 Carrot
	You pad around the funny creation, trying to figure out its purpose. It seems like it's here to just... exist. How strange! The snow around it is churned up and fluffy, so you drop down for a good roll. Refreshing!	+2 HP
	You pad around the funny creation, trying to figure out its purpose. It seems like it's here to just... exist. How strange!	N/A
Season(s): Winter

Deciduous Forest

You spot a green Carolina anole resting on a tree branch. Its throat is enlarged, and its vivid colouring may mean it's not so good to eat.
Snack	You try to bite down on the lizard anyway. It's gone before you've even noticed - you've clenched your jaws around nothing but air. You sniff and dig around to try and find it, but there's nothing save for some branches.	+1 Large Branch
	Snack	?	?

What a struggle! This long-eared owl just caught a gray ratsnake!
Follow	The owl sits on a big oak to eat. As you observe in the hopes of getting some leftovers or a cool snake skin, the owl gets into a fight with a raccoon! You hear something fall to the ground in the commotion, so you steal it.	+1 Bone
	You try to follow the owl, hopeful for some leftovers, but the big bird claws you with its talons angrily!	-4 HP
Bark	You bark and growl at the big, fluffy owl. Spooked, it lands on a branch where a turkey is sleeping! Needless to say, the fowl fell right onto your head.	+1 Turkey Tom Carcass
Bark	You bark and growl at the big, fluffy owl. It flies away, indifferent to your noises.	N/A
		Season(s): ?Spring, Autumn, Winter

Loud, rhythmic knocking makes you feel like something is drilling into your head. A red-bellied woodpecker is the source of the irritating noise, of course.
Offer Acorn*	You offer it an acorn and ask if the bird could keep the noise down. It agrees and flies to a different branch, causing something to drop onto the ground.	+2-3 SC
		Tap the Tree	?	+1 Snake Quest Item
	You sit up and start tapping at the tree with your paws. The bird watches you from above, utterly confused. You tap some more, but the bird flies away. At least it's quiet now.		N/A
Season(s): ?Summer, Autumn, Winter * This option will only appear if you have at least 1x Acorn in your Hoard

The forest is always full of various scents but only one type of creature feels foreign every time you feel its presence. When you follow the unusual scent, you discover a group of humans talking in front of an artificial structure that appears to be their place to sleep. How long do they plan to stay here?
Hide and sniff around	No need to reveal yourself; humans can be dangerous even without their weapons. Maintaining a safe distance, you sniff around the tent. One unsupervised bag remains open, and the scent is too tempting not to investigate. Shoving your nose in, you struggle a bit, but the effort is worth it. You discover some fresh fruits inside, definitely not like any you've seen before, but so tasty!	+3 HP
	It's best to remain hidden. Humans are full of surprises, and anything they use could be potentially dangerous. However, their bags may contain some tasty treats. Sniffing around the tent, you discover an unsupervised bag. The scent coming from the inside is so tempting that you put almost your entire head in. Suddenly, a voice and footsteps reach your ears. One of the humans must have heard you! In a panic, you manage to get rid of the bag and escape before they can discover you.	N/A
Approach	The humans could be dangerous, but this group seems quite harmless with their empty hands. Taking a step forward, you reveal yourself, and immediately sense a wave of fear emanating from the group. They start talking quickly, rummaging through their bags. You have no idea what they are saying, but the result is a piece of fresh fish thrown in your direction. Within seconds, all of the humans lock themselves in the tent, pretending that they have disappeared.	+1 Delicate Meat
	It's not easy to decide, but you take a step forward, ready to see what happens. Humans are unpredictable, and it's better to be prepared for anything. As expected, they stop talking, looking at you as if you planned to eat them. They aren't in a friendly mood and lock themselves in their tiny tent. No fun this time.	N/A
Season(s): Autumn

The sound of two tiny birds catches your attention. When you look up, you see them right above your head, focused on their flight and unaware of your presence.
Offer Acorn (will only appear if the player has an Acorn)	You're quite surprised to receive a small piece resembling dried meat with a faint scent of various herbs. The bird advises you to eat it, and suddenly everything becomes clear. Whatever it is, it possesses some healing properties.	+8 HP
Chase	You start to run, determined to have at least one tasty snack. Suddenly, you hear a tiny voice from above. The bird proposes a trade: treasure if you leave them alone. Well, why not? It's not much, but the bird's idea of buying their life is so amusing that you decide to spare them both.	?1-3 SC
	There is no time to think twice about it. It's now or never! You run as fast as you can, trying to keep your prey in sight. Suddenly, you trip over a protruding root, which forces you to rest for a while. You don't catch the birds, but another familiar scent reaches your nose. A consolation prize and not at all delicious, but your herbalist will be happy about it.	+1 Burning Bush
	With a wide smile, you start chasing the birds. You treat it as an excuse to stretch your legs and a good fun time. Everyone needs to relax from time to time.	N/A

A group of brightly colored birds sits among the leaves of a tree above your head, chatting up a storm. You don't speak bird, but they seem to be gossiping about something.
What are you gossiping about?	The birds immediately stop chatting and glare at you. Your nosiness is not appreciated, it seems. One of them tosses something down to you and rudely tells you to go away. Fine then!	+1 Feverfew
	Little daggers shoot from the birds' eyes as they abruptly stop talking. It seems you're not welcome here. Too much wolf, not enough bird. You turn away, and they start up again, but softer this time so that you can't hear a word.	N/A
Pester	One by one you jump at each bird, but they're too high up for you to really pose a threat. They watch you in amusement as you leap into the air joyfully. Eventually you tire, and lay down beneath the tree for a break. What fun!	+2% Energy
	Time for a bit of fun! You leap at the tree, swatting at the dangling tail feathers of one of the birds. Your claw hooks into a feather and with a shriek the bird flies up as its plucked from its bum. The rest of the birds fly away before they meet the same fate, but no matter. You got your prize!	+1 Blue Jay Feather
	Birds are always up for a good game! You leap at them and with irritated cries they fly off to another tree, glaring at you from their beady little eyes. See? Fun!	N/A
Season(s): Summer

At first glance, this deer looks almost as if it's alive, but when you move closer, you realize that it's completely frozen and already torn into by another predator. What's most surprising is that you notice a tiny fawn by its side. It doesn't look at you and pretends to be invisible.
Check it out	When you move closer, you discover that the meat is so hard that trying to take a bite would end badly for your teeth. You want to try it so badly that with a heavy sigh, you lick it a few times in disappointment. You consider going after the fawn instead, but its skinny, scared frame wouldn't be much of a meal anyway.	+1 HP
	You ignore the fawn, having a much bigger meal just in front of your nose. To your disappointment, the deer is hard as stone, almost as if it is made of ice. Trying to taste it would be a waste of time, so you instead investigate the area. It's calm and silent for now, but you get the feeling something may be lurking nearby. You spy something that you can take to your den.	+1 Large Branch
		+1 Large Leaf
		+1 Large Rock
	The deer looked promising from afar, and you don't want to believe that it would be impossible to take a bite, but the meat is hard as stone, and you don't have time to wait for warmer weather. You see some claw marks on the snow, and you see that you are not the first who wants to have a free meal. The fawn looks at you with fear, but you're not interested in it right now. Your eyes catch something shiny under the young deer's leg. It seems that someone lost some valuables. The fawn quickly runs away as soon as you lock your gaze on something else.	?1-4 SC
	Happy and excited at first, you notice that the deer is hard as stone, and no matter where you try to take a bite, it's simply impossible. At least it will be equally impossible for anyone else. Perhaps you can come back here later? You consider going after the fawn instead, but decide to leave it in peace.	N/A
Try to take a bite	The task is difficult but not impossible. There are some parts of the deer soft enough to at least taste it. The meat is fresh and delicious, but you don't have enough time to struggle with it for more when it's almost completely frozen. You briefly think about taking the fawn, too, but your hunger is satiated for now. This little one is lucky today..	+4 HP
	You sniff the carcass, trying to find a softer spot that would allow you to take a bite, but no luck. You don't have time to wait for warmer weather, so you leave, disappointed that someone else will have a nice meal instead of you. For a brief moment, you consider going for the fawn, but you decide against it. It's not like it will be much of a meal anyway.	N/A
Season(s): Winter

Two very young fawns are having fun prancing around. They haven't noticed you, and there is no sign of other deer nearby. Do they know that it's dangerous to be far away from their herd?
Join them	You have to face the facts: your legs are not meant for prancing but you try your best, giving the fawns plenty of entertainment as you keep stumbling. There's no way for you to repeat their graceful jumps. The fawns can't stop laughing! Successful or not, it relaxes you enough to keep moving forward with fresh energy.	+4% Energy
	You join the fawns, trying to mimic their graceful jumps but your legs are definitely not meant to spring upwards like theirs do. You continue anyway and you realize after a bit that the fawns are observing you as if you've gone completely crazy.	N/A
Hunt	It's your lucky day. You don't even need to think about the strategy or calculate the chances when the fawns are so young. Hunger won't be an issue today.	+1 Meat Chunks [Small]
	What could go wrong? They're babies! You start chasing the fawns without putting much energy into it. Your lack of attention nips you in the butt, and both of them suddenly vanish as if they were never there. It seems they're smarter than you today!	N/A

A little furry brown American Pika comes bounding up to you, seemingly determined and unafraid of you.
Approach	You lower your nose to sniff the little creature and it places its paw on your nose - OUCH! It gives you a bit of a static shock, but quickly darts off before you can retaliate. You feel.. energised?	+10% Energy

Careful, straight ahead! A greater sage-grouse male seems to be prowling for challengers.
Take a Chance	Minute by minute, you take your time to approach the critter patiently. Your efforts pay off!	+1 Grouse Carcass

This mountain beaver is caught off-guard outside of its burrow! It quickly shows you its enormous teeth before you consider attacking. Yes, it's best not to engage.
Offer Acorn*	You offer the beaver a treat instead. It's a nice commodity, enough to warrant a small exchange.	+1 Lucky Foot

A northern pygmy owl is staring down at you from the low-hanging branch of a tree. Its head is rotating in all directions as the wide, open eyes follow your every move.
Hoot	You stand under the tree and let out a series of howls, doing your best to imitate the hoots of an owl. With every fake hoot, more owls gather on the branch. You feel a little shy with such a large audience, so you finish your show. A few shiny tokens of admiration drop down from above.	+2 SC

Bait	You pretend there's a mouse running around and do a fake hunt by jumping at the grass. The owl takes interest and swoops down to steal your prey, but you catch it in the air. Pity that it's so tiny.	+1% Hunger
	Bait	?	?

A thick, fat, and juicy Rocky Mountain toad is resting on this comfortable rock, protected from the weather by a coat of mucus and mud.
Lick it	All hail the hypnotoad... You're a little dizzy and the world is spinning in weird colours, but you do feel pretty invigorated!	+5 HP
		All hail the hypnotoad... Hmmm, it doesn't seem to have done anything. Maybe you got lucky this time?	N/A
			Don't lick it	You prefer to stay safe and just nudge the toad back into the mud.	N/A
Don't lick it	?				?

Two woodhouse's scrub jays are foraging for food. This place must be nice!
Dig Around	You join in and dig deeper, managing to scrounge up some nice seeds and worms for the birds. You also find something for yourself!	+1 Acorn
	Chase	You bow down low to the ground, then start chasing the birds around, but they keep coming back to the same spot! You all tire out eventually, and you lie down to rest after the birds fly away, having had enough of your bullying. You end up finding something useful for your den!	+1 Large Branch
+1 Large Leaf
+1 Large Rock

A group of humans is passing by, their voices echoing loudly enough to make the whole area aware of their presence. You're close enough to catch intriguing scents. Their bags must be full of treats and trinkets!
Growl	You approach the group in silence, revealing yourself with a low growl. The chaos you create with it is surely one of the best things you've seen lately. It's good fun to watch the humans screaming and losing their belongings on the way. The bravest one stops for a while to throw something at you, trying to ward you off. It actually catches your attention, so you decide to wait for the next opportunity to chase them.	+1 Large Branch
		?1 Large Leaf
		+1 Large Rock
	You silently draw closer, preparing to surprise the group with your most ominous growl. Your plan works like a charm, and they scream in panic, abandoning their belongings without a second thought. Ha! Losers. Once they are gone, you check to see if they left something valuable behind.	?4-5 SC
	You silently draw closer, preparing to surprise the group with your most ominous growl. Your plan works like a charm, and they scream and run away in panic. That was satisfying!	N/A
Act friendly	You can smell a few interesting scents around the group. Their bags are surely full of food, and you just have to get some! You try to fool the humans with your acting, mimicking all that you remember about dogs that accompany humans sometimes. They don't seem to believe you, but it seems to work somewhat. One of them throws something at you, hoping to keep you busy for a while. As you approach, you see a small chunk of dried meat. A small thing, but tasty!	+5 HP
	You're in the mood for fun. Can humans be fooled by your acting? Wagging your tail and smiling, you approach the group, but you can see and sense the increasing fear. It doesn't seem like they believe or trust you. One step too many causes them to flee in panic. You could, of course, catch them easily, but it's not worth the effort.	N/A
Season(s): Summer

A dark mass caught in a web draws your gaze. It's a lampshade spider, sitting on her nest. Creepy!
Approach	The spider and her nest is just too enticing to ignore. You approach, wholly fascinated by the little creature. She doesn't do much, but you enjoy watching her small movements as she goes about her day. It's a good chance to take a break, too.	+10 HP
	As you approach, the spider gets increasingly agitated. When you get too close, it decides enough is enough. It bites your nose, causing a nice welt to form. You back away quickly and leave the spider in peace, but as you continue on your way you can feel the heat spreading through your body.	N/A
Observe	You watch as a butterfly is caught in the web, fluttering wildly. The spider takes advantage and wraps it up for later. A ripped off wing flutters to the ground, and it's so pretty that you creep closer to snatch it up without distubring the spider.	+1 Butterfly Wing
	You keep a safe distance away and watch the spider for a bit. There's always something to learn from even the littlest of creatures!	+2% Energy

A large flock of birds clogs the sky and nearly blocks out the sun. There's hundreds of them! It must be their annual migration.
Count them	You sit and watch the flock in awe, trying to count how many there are. It proves harder than you thought, and you quickly lose count. There's no end to them! Finally the last of the birds disappears over the horizon and all is quiet again. You rise to your paws and set off once again with a bit of pep in your step.	+3% Energy
	You flop on your back, hoping that it's easier to count when you're facing upwards as if watching the clouds. It's successful at first, but the sheer number of birds eventually makes you dizzy. It feels good to lay here though, and you close your eyes. The sound of wings and various bird calls lulls you into sleep. When your eyes snap back open, the birds are gone, and the daylight has shifted. You must have needed that!	+2 HP
Follow the migration	It's nice to follow the birds without having to worry about tracking where you're going--the birds are doing that for you! Is this what humans feel like when they go for their walks? Nothing to worry about except one paw step in front of the other. At last the birds disappear and you're forced to pay attention again.	+2% Energy
	You follow the birds as long as you can, tracking their flight path and direction of travel. They're moving far too fast to follow for long, but it's not hard to figure out where they're headed. The sky clears eventually, and you stop for a drink. Something glitters in the puddle--pine cones!	?1-4 SC
	The migration path leads you to a place you're not as familiar with, and you decide to stop and explore for a while. It's hard to keep up with the speed of the birds, anyway. The anticipation of exploring the area rejuvenates you. Time to check it out!	+5 HP
Season(s): Autumn

A peculiar rustling sound catches your attention, leading you to an intriguing sight. You discover a nest full of eggs where a milk snake is about to devour one of them.
Attack!	The eggs are your main goal, but you need to eliminate the long obstacle standing between you and a tasty meal. The snake is so focused on eating that it doesn't even notice your approach before it meets its demise.	+1 Milk Snake Carcass
	The snake is lucky that you're only interested in the eggs, but it never hurts to assert dominance, just in case. To ensure it doesn't attempt anything, you show your teeth as a warning. The snake has already swallowed one of the eggs, losing some of its mobility, so you throw it out of the nest to claim everything for yourself.	+3% Energy +10% Hunger
	Growling at the snake barely grabs its attention. Losing your patience, you bark at the reptile, but it reacts in a way you don't expect. The snake coils around the eggs, staring at you, ready to attack if you take another step. With a heavy sigh, you decide to go and find something better than just some tiny, dirty eggs.	N/A
Steal	When the snake devours an egg and becomes less mobile, it's your time to act. Quickly grabbing one of the eggs, you notice the snake ready to strike as you return for the next. Not in the mood for conflict, you eat the one you have, watching the snake coiling around the nest, protecting its treasure.	+4% Energy
	You let the snake have one of the eggs, knowing it will take some time for it to consume it. You can then take the remaining ones. It seems like a fair deal by your standards, but the snake has a different opinion. It attacks you as soon as you open your mouth to grab the egg. What a greedy bastard!	-3 HP
Season(s): Spring

Chickadees are supposed to be small and cute, but why must they be so loud? Its shrill calls echo in your ears as it peers down at you without remorse.
Shoo Away	The chickadee ignores you and keeps on singing, blissfully unaware of anything outside of its bubble. Eventually you move on to get away from its nonsense.	N/A
	Your attempts to shoo the bird away don't do any good at first, but then the chickadee disappears over the mountainside. At last, peace! Seconds later it returns, holding a piece of rope. It drops it at your paws and begins to sing again. You sniff it, smelling human scent mixed with death. Eesh!	+1 Hiker's Rope
	As you try to shoo it away, the chickadee seems to get irritated and flies down at you, going right for your eyes! Instinct kicks in and you swat it away with a smack which sends the bird plummeting into the dirt. Its body goes limp, dead on the spot. Such a shame... really, it's a shame to snack on such an annoying bird. Terrible!	+10% Hunger
	It takes a few tries, but finally you're able to pester the bird enough for it to take off and find another tree far, far away. The silence is so welcoming that you decide to curl up under the tree for a bit of shut eye.	+3% Energy
Yell back	You raise your voice to mirror the chickadee's, and to your surprise it keeps singing with you. Well how about that! You sing together until the chickadee flies off, and there's a bit more pep in your step after the duet.	+3% Energy
	You can sing, too! Not like the chickadee, but surely your voice is just as lovely? Its singing cuts off abruptly as it stares at you in disbelief. After a moment it flies off, dropping an herb from its talons that it had collected. Guess it didn't like your singing!	+1 Winterfat
	Your voice carries up to the bird, but it stops singing and stares at you. You sing for a bit, but the hard eyes of the bird make your pelt prickle. It's as if it's calculating how best to take revenge for your interruption. Probably best to go before it gets any bright ideas!	N/A

The strong smell of fish captures your attention, and you spot a rainbow trout's body shining on the nearby rocks. It's still very fresh and very tempting but you're not the sole visitor eager to claim it. It looks like a raccoon is also trying to get closer to the fish!
Offer Acorn (will only appear if the player has an Acorn)	You don't really believe that an acorn will be more attractive to the raccoon than a fish, but to your surprise, the plan works, and the creature lets you eat in peace. It's just a snack, but in a moment like this, it's the tastiest thing in the world and you cherish every bite.	+10% Energy
Hurry!	You're quick, but the raccoon is closer, swiftly placing its dirty little paws on your food just as you reach for it. With a low growl, you bare your teeth, but it only triggers the raccoon to use its claws and teeth as well. When you fight, the fish slips away, sliding into the water and disappearing. The raccoon shoots you a fake smile before casually walking away as if nothing had happened.	-3 HP
	With no time to plan anything you quickly jump, reaching the fish first. The raccoon is much smaller and its steps are shorter, thankfully. You just smile, puffing out your chest and flexing a bit. You're pretty sure the raccoon is watching.	+5 HP
	As you try to reach the fish before the raccoon, it ends up being closer to the tasty meat than you are. It manages to escape before you can react, fully aware of your frustration reaching its peak. You swear you can hear it laughing.	N/A

Your eyes catch movement in the mist ahead. The form looks human, and yet...it's furry, too. What could it be?
Follow	The figure moves back and forth, making a strange zig zag path. It's odd, but you follow it anyway. It disappears after a time, but the cool mist on your fur has left you refreshed.	+4 HP
	You follow the figure as best you can, losing sight of it from time to time. Eventually it disappears completely, and you're left looking around in confusion. A small shadow sits on the ground and when you go to check it out, an eerie feeling comes over you. It's tiny little human in the form of a toy.	+1 Old Doll
	Quick on your paws, you make to follow the figure. It's not long before the mist is too thick to see a thing, and you lose all track of it. Darn!	N/A
Track	It's hard to see in the mist, but your nose won't let you down! You track the figure for a long while, enjoying only relying on your nose for guidance. Its scent trail ends abruptly at a patch of herbs, and you can't help but wonder if the figure walked through the patch to distract you.	+2 Redwood Sorrel
	There's nothing your nose can't track! The scent trail that you follow is strange, and unlike anything you've smelled before. The creature must be covering ground more quickly than you; you lose the scent after a time. It was good fun at least, and you had a nice walk!	?2 HP
	Surely this creature's scent is strong enough to track from anywhere? It's very unique, and hard to miss even among the other scents around you. Yet somehow, after only a few moments of tracking, the scent completely disappears. Did it vanish into thin air?	N/A
Season(s): Winter

Two fluffy marmots have come out of their burrow anxiously, as if they can sense your presence.
Investigate the area	You try to act uninterested as you approach the rodents. You don't really care about them, but you have a feeling that they are looking for something here. If that's the case, you will find it first. Ah yes...there's that familiar smell!	+1 St. John's Wort
	Both marmots seem a bit suspicious as you watch them. You're pretty sure they're just waiting for you to leave so they can find something stashed around here.Trying to act normally, you sniff every single rock, but there's nothing even remotely interesting here. If the rodents wanted you to waste your time, they succeeded.	N/A
Dig	When you approach the marmots, they both quickly disappear into their burrow, but you notice their horrified looks as you completely ruin the entrance to the tunnels. Their upset voices change into begging as you go further. Eventually, they offer you something valuable if you promise to go away. The gift happens to be an herbal snack that tastes awful, but you feel a bit better afterward.	+4 HP
	If the marmots are here, their burrow must be nearby. You're in the mood for digging and now's the perfect opportunity! Who cares if their home is destroyed? You uncover something shiny and snatch it up quickly.	?1-5 SC
	The marmots vanish into the deep tunnels of their burrow as soon as you approach, but your goal is different. You're far more interested in the burrow itself than in its residents, and you feel real joy while digging around. The mortified marmots start to yell at you, promising to share the whereabouts of something tasty if you leave them in peace. You decide it’s worth a shot to see what they have to say and aren't disappointed.	+1 Quail Carcass
	When you move closer, both marmots vanish within seconds, but it's not them you're after. You're way more interested in their burrow, and the excitement grows as you start digging around it, destroying the entrance completely. You ignore all of the insults thrown at you by the upset marmots, swearing at you from the depths of their tunnels. You can't reach them anyway, so you eventually lose interest when nothing surfaces from the dirt..	N/A

Investigate	You move closer, making the squirrel anxious, but it's not the rodent you're interested in. There's something it's standing on! You gently move the squirrel aside with your nose to take it. You can see the relief in its eyes.	+3 Cedar Bark
	You sniff around, showing more interest in the tree than in the squirrel, which makes it a lot more confident. It pretends to search for treats with you, pointing to a spot you should check. You find a few berries, which are not a typical snack for a wolf, but it feels refreshing.	?2 HP
	The squirrel becomes anxious as you approach but eventually relaxes, noticing your interest in the surroundings rather than itself. You feel the tiny paws of the squirrel touching you, attempting to play. However, when you finally look at it, the rodent quickly runs away.	N/A
Poke the chipmunk	You sniff the chipmunk carefully and then poke it gently with your nose. To the tiny rodent, you're a giant with unknown intentions. Visibly anxious, the squirrel places something in front of your nose and runs away before you can react or say that you don't want to hurt it.	+1 Lucky Foot
	You approach and playfully poke the chipmunk with your nose. It looks anxious at first but quickly realizes that you're equally curious about each other. The tiny creature lets you sniff it, and in return, it jumps on your head to play with your fur. In a different situation, it would be annoying, but it's not so bad now.	+3 HP

You notice the silhouette of a deer in the distance. It struggles to move and keeps falling. The ice has trapped it!
Help	Instead of using the opportunity for an easy catch, you start digging to help the deer free itself.

You can't blame it; were the circumstances different, you'd probably be having a meal right now.	N/A

	You move closer to finish what the freezing wind and the ice have started.

	The eel doesn't seem to want you anywhere near it, but that's fine. You're here for the mud! Or what the churned up mud has revealed, that is. After a bit of digging in the muck, you find a nice fresh herb that wouldn't have surfaced otherwise.	+1 Ginger

Catch	It won't be easy, but you have to try! You pounce on the wriggling form, trying to trap it in the slippery mud.

Humans with long sticks are standing by the nearby waterway. They wave them around and you watch as a line goes into the water. They smell of fish. What are they doing?

	The young bears seem to be having a lot of fun, but you can also see determination in their eyes. You decide to offer them a few lessons from an adult perspective. You're not a bear but you're older and you simply know better, of course! When you attempt to demonstrate some cool moves, both cubs look at you as if you're crazy and move away. Well, that message is clear. Nothing to do here. They don't know what they're missing.	N/A
Season(s): Spring

The rustle of leaves and a low grunting sound catches your attention. When you look, you notice a bear focused on eating berries with such an eager expression that it makes you want to taste them, too.
Small talk	You try to start a friendly conversation, but the bear is definitely not in the mood. To avoid tension, you pretend to be busy with something else, casually sniffing around, and you stumble upon something by accident.	+1 Gull Feather
	You approach, starting a conversation in the friendliest way you can think of. The bear ignores you, turning its back whenever you move. After a while, you decide to move on.”	N/A
Join	It's always healthy to have some variation in your diet, so you give the berries a try. To your surprise, they are actually delicious! When the bear notices your excitement, he politely warns you to leave some for him.	+10% Energy
	Already excited about the berries, you devour them quickly. Even the bear looks surprised, but he doesn't comment on your messy style. When you finish, you almost immediately feel that you have eaten too much.	Illness: Constipation

Season(s): Autumn

A group of humans has chosen this place to stay for a while. They are usually loud and don't try to hide, which you find odd but also fascinating. All the scents surrounding their tent are incredibly tempting.
Sniff around the tent	You keep your distance, checking the area carefully. You find a bag but it's closed tightly and impossible to open. When you shove it aside in frustration, you notice there is something shiny underneath.	?4-5 SC
	You decide to remain cautious and only check the outside of the tent when the humans aren't looking. You go after the strongest scent, and quickly find... something. Humans wear these things when they walk, and they probably don't realize what an amazing toy it can be.	+1 Shoe
	You carefully sniff everything, but nothing catches your interest. However, you notice a box with a beautiful scent, yet it's tightly sealed and makes a loud noise when you try to open it. Upon hearing approaching footsteps, you decide to run before someone discovers you.	N/A
Steal	It's not safe here, so you decide to steal one of the unsupervised bags and check it out elsewhere. You take the smallest one, believing it to be light, but you discover it feels like it's filled with stones. The voices of the humans grow louder, and they will discover you if you don't run away now.	N/A
	An amazing scent lures you to the bags left under the tree, and you don't even need to double-check the contents. One of the bags is not closed, but when you shove your nose in, it makes a truly annoying, rustling sound. The humans stop talking, leaving you only enough time to grab the first thing you have under your nose and run away.	+2 HP
	You approach the bags and backpacks left a bit further from the tent. Constantly keeping an eye on the humans makes it hard to focus on your task. All of the bags are tightly closed, and it's not easy to take anything out. Fortunately, you're lucky to find some meat that's been prepared to be eaten later, but you quickly gulp it down. You hear footsteps! Time to run!	+4 HP
Season(s): Summer

Trotting along as if on a mission, a cross fox passes by, shooting glances at you out of the corner of its eye.
Follow	You wait for the fox to get a bit ahead before trailing after it. Foxes are known to stash things for later--maybe you'll get lucky! Sure enough, it's checking on its stash. You wait for it to leave and quickly dig up the carcass. It's fresh, too!	+1 Mink Carcass
	The fox notices you following, and turns to growl in warning. When you don't back off, it darts in to bite at the soft flesh of your belly. With a snarl you chase it off, but the damage is done. Bastard!	-2 HP
	Following the fox isn't easy and you lose sight of it a few times, but you keep at it. Surely it will stop soon? But the further you trek the more you realize that it's not stopping soon. Eventually you tire and stop to lick your paws, disappointed that you wasted all that effort for nothing.	+3% Energy -3 HP
Join for a hunt	Hunting together is bound to be plentiful! The fox agrees, and you track a flock of swans to the nearby water source. Before you can hatch a plan, the fox leaps towards the birds, dispatches one, and scampers off without a backward glance. The swans fly off, leaving you with only a couple of feathers for your efforts. Not fair!	+2 Swan Feathers
	The fox says it's not interested in a hunt, but it wouldn't mind a communal grooming. You agree and sit with the fox for a time, exchanging news and getting tangles out of each other's pelts.	+2% Energy
	The fox swipes at your nose when you approach and suggest a hunt, snarling and saying it doesn't need help from a smelly wolf like you.	-2 HP
	You approach the fox and ask if it wants to hunt. Hesitant at first, it finally agrees and you trot together to a nearby water source. A flock of swans sit on the bank, and you come at them from both sides. It's easy enough for you to nab one, and the fox is able to snatch a fledgling. It disappears with its prize without bidding you farewell.	+1 Swan Carcass

Two little lemmings look like they're very focused on something. Maybe you should see if they'll share...or you could just take it by force and get a meal out of it, too.
Enquire	Without warning, one of the lemmings turns to you as you approach and begins to barrel toward you! It tries to bite at your paws, but you easily kick it away. The second lemming joins its friend, and two against one isn't fair, even if they are small. You leave them be, enjoying a nice run to stretch your legs.	+2 HP
	The lemmings freeze in fear as you approach, and barely seem to register that you're speaking to them. Finally, a sharp bark gets them back to their senses, and they shove a feather in your face before demanding that you leave. Well, fine then.	+2 Gyrfalcon Feathers
	You pad up to the lemmings, asking what they're doing. The wail in surprise and begin to throw things at you. They refuse to see reason, and eventually you're forced to back off. Seems one of the things they threw at you is useful, at least.	+1 Bearberry
Hunt	These lemmings won't know what hit them! You pounce on the nearest one and dispatch it with ease, and start to go after the other. It's quicker than you, though, and disappears into its burrow. Well, one lemming makes a nice snack at least!	+3 HP +5% Hunger
	You've hit the jackpot! As you pounce on one of the lemmings, the other bolts across to its burrow to protect its young. Not so fast, though--you snatch it up and the babies, too. Your pack will eat well tonight.	+5 Lemming Carcass
	Hunting small prey isn't exciting, but it's easy enough...or so you thought. Your cockiness proves to be your downfall as the lemmings escape your grasp effortlessly.	N/A

A striking red-necked grebe lands in the nearby water, fluffing its feathers as it glides across the glass-like surface.
Follow along the shore	Maybe if you stay on the shore long enough the grebe will come close enough to snatch? You pace back and forth, eventually settling on a cool patch of mud to wait the bird out. No amount of waiting does any good--the bird stubbornly stays away. Oh well.	+4 HP
	You track the grebe along the shore for a bit, but then your eyes are drawn to things being washed up on the shore. There's bound to be some goodies! You pick through the sticks and rocks and finally find something useful. What a pretty shell!	+1 Mollusk Shell
Find its nest	The bird has to have a nest around here somewhere. You search up and down the shore but there's nothing but mud, sticks, and more mud. It's not your lucky day today.	N/A
	There must be a nest nearby, you just have to find it! You let your nose lead you, and discover an empty nest. It's definitely used, but there are no chicks or eggs this time. You'll have to be content with a stray feather.	+1 Grebe Feather

A distinctive little thrush perches on a branch, preening and looking around from time to time. It doesn't have a care in the world! You wouldn't either if you stayed up high enough that no one could reach you.
Call up to it	You bark sharply, trying to get the bird's attention. It doesn't seem particularly interested in you, and continues preening. It seems that you're not so scary after all.	N/A
	With a thoughtful look, the bird settles on the branch and watches you...and watches you. You feel judged under its gaze and wait to see what it plans to do. Abruptly it flies off, leaving you looking after it in confusion. Strange...at least you got to pause for a bit and regain your strength	+3 HP
	In the midst of its preening, the thrush kicks up something under its feet as it looks down at your furry form. It flutters down onto your nose, causing you to sneeze. A pretty little butterfly wing!	+1 Butterfly Wing
	The bird peers down at you curiously, its interest piqued. After a moment, it hops along the branch and disappears into a hole. Is that its nest? Something sails toward your head and lands at your paws with a soft thump. A gift!	+1 Lucky Foot
Shake the tree	You try and shake the tree, but your weight is nothing compared to its bulk. The thrush looks amused at your failure.	N/A
	So much for shaking the tree--your little weight doesn't make it budge an inch. With a sigh you flop at the base of the tree for a short break under the watchful gaze of the thrush.	?4 HP
	The tree doesn't budge, so you decide to search around the roots. At first there's nothing, but then an old buried morsel of food surfaces under your digging paws. Yum!	+2 HP
	You try and shake the tree, leaning all of your weight into it. The thrush looks startled as a large object is shaken loose and falls. Holy crap! That's the biggest pinecone you've ever seen!	+1 Massive Pinecone

Swamp

Swamp

A small splash in the nearby water announces the presence of a creature.
Investigate	You approach carefully, spotting a slow moving Alligator Snapping Turtle in the water! You drag it far enough to have some time to work on getting the meat out.	+1 Turtle Eggs
	You approach carefully, but as soon as you step deeper into the water, a jolt of pain squeezes out a yelp out of you. Your paw has been snapped by an Alligator Snapping Turtle! You can be grateful this is not an Alligator, for real..	-2 HP

You hear a strange, fast-paced splashing in the water nearby. You look to see a brown basilisk scurrying across the surface of the water!
Give it a try!	You step onto the water and gasp, shocked that your paw has not sunk into it! Wait... there's something just under your paw. You're not really walking on the water's surface. What is that? What did you step on?	+1 Turtle Shell
	You put your paw onto the water's surface, but, as expected, it sinks in. Bah!	N/A
Follow along the shore	You run along the swampy shore, excited to hear the plapping sounds of the lizard's feet hitting the water! You stop suddenly, finding something partially submerged on the shore.	+1 Snake Quest Item
Follow along the shore	You run along the swampy shore, excited to hear the plapping sounds of the lizard's feet hitting the water! It runs off and you sigh deeply, wondering if you'll ever be fast enough to run on the water's surface.	N/A

A tiny female Key deer has noticed you! So long as you don't move, she's only nervously stomping at the ground.
Race	You bow down and invite the tiny, adorable deer to play! Unsure of your true intentions, the deer shyly hops after you, but soon enough, you both end up in a race complete with obstacles! You trip over one and lose the race spectacularly, but honestly? The obstacle you tripped over is neat enough that you don't consider the race a loss! You happily take it back home.	+1 Large Branch
		You bow down and invite the tiny, adorable deer to play! Hesitant at first, the deer lags behind your eager jumps, but in the end, she passed you quickly and won the race!	N/A
	Hunt!	The deer is small, so your long legs make you run fast enough to catch her before losing too much energy on the chase.	+1 Small Doe Carcass
You charge at the deer, but she jumps into such a deep thicket that you're unable to chase her.		N/A

A creature is swimming in the water. At first it appears to be a beaver, but after a short observation and a few scent checks, you're pretty sure it's a nutria. You're not too eager to take a swim right now.
Offer Acorn*	You clear your throat as you approach the shore. The nutria swims closer and checks out what you have to offer it in exchange for a short dive. It agrees! A few plunges under the surface results in a fair trade between the two of you.	+1 Ibis Feather +1 Mollusk Shell
	Season(s): ?Summer, Autumn, Winter * This option will only appear if you have at least 1x Acorn in your Hoard

A white-faced ibis is wading in the water.
Splash	?	+1 Zebra Longwing

A colourful wood duck is flying by!
Try to catch it!	You rush after the duck, falling into a pit and losing the bird from your sight. You gather yourself together and happen to look down. Oh? What's this?	+1 Owl Talon
	You sprint after the duck in hopes of catching it as it's flying rather low, but it flew over the water! You can't walk on the water's surface, so you give up your chase.	N/A
Follow	?	+2 - 3 SC
	You follow the duck's flight path, but lose the scent after a short while. Darn!	N/A
Season(s): ?Summer, Autumn, Winter

Bright pink and smelling of shrimp, a flock of flamingos wade in the water nearby.
Wade	You wade into the water, enjoying the coolness against your legs and belly. Peering down, you spot something shiny on the sandy ground below the surface. Sweet!	+1-6 SC
	The water looks nice and cool, and you need a bath anyway. You wade into the water among the birds, ignoring their puzzled looks. Ah, much better!	+4% Energy
	You wade into the water among the birds, splashing around for a while but after a time you grow bored. It's cold, and there's nothing interesting under the water. What a waste.	N/A
Scare	The birds are taking up this whole area like the selfish bastards they are. One sharp bark and a wet run later, you manage to scare them off. The churning water washes up something beside you on the shore, as if in offering for scaring off the flock.	+1 Lucky Foot
	Flamingos are good for one thing: scaring! You bound into the water, barreling toward them as fast as you can churn your legs through the water. With irritated squawks they fly up as a group and take to the air, turning the world pink for a few moments. What fun!	+2% Energy
	These dumb birds won't know what hit them! You leap into the water and nip at the closest bird, startling them all into flight. Within seconds they're gone, and you have the water all to yourself. Much better.	+1 HP
	Time to scare these pink water lubbers off! You rush at them, but something about you must not be intimidating; they move away briefly, but then return to their fishing without batting an eye. You're a loser this time.	N/A
Hunt	You're sure that if you approach quietly, you can manage to snag one of the birds before it flies away. You move carefully, trying to appear nonchalant. Once within lunging distance you try for the nearest bird, but the water slows your movements down and turns you into a bumbling idiot. The bird escapes, kicking something out of the water right in your face.	?1-4 SC
	Easy does it...you move through the water, pretending you're not at all interested in the birds. Once you get close enough, you leap, managing to successfully take one down. The rest of the flock escapes, but you have your prize.	+3% Energy +10% Hunger
	Hunting these birds shouldn't be too hard, right? But before you make a move, the birds' sharp eyes are on you, watching you closely. So much for that idea.	N/A

Floodwaters rise up, beginning to engulf the land around you. The recent storms must have caused the swampy land to become oversaturated. Think fast!
Take your chances	You're no fish, but the floodwaters can't be that bad, surely? You wade through them, finding debris to hold onto and perch on as you make your way through the territory. The water smells and your paws feel chapped, but at last you reach a drier area. Blisters have formed on your pawpads, and they feel hot from being exposed to the dirty water. Ugh... bright idea that was.	Illness: Infection
		Already Sick: N/A
		?If Immune:
	You stick close to the trees and any vegetation you can find, stopping to grab onto them when needed. The floodwaters are full of so much junk that you have to dodge out of the way of random broken branches and general muck. As you make your way to a drier spot, your nose picks up the scent of pig. They're bloated and water-logged, but you're not going to say no to easy food!	+2 Swine Carcass
Look for higher ground	There's got to be higher ground somewhere! No way you're trekking through that nasty floodwater. You let your paws lead you to steeper terrain, and after a bit find yourself in a dry spot with a sign of relief. The water will recede soon, and in the meantime... you search the churned up ground, knowing that something is bound to be stashed here. There!	+1 Bone +1 Mollusk Shell
	Hopefully the flood won't last long, but it's best to get to higher ground to be safe. As you trek uphill, a hoof sloshes out of the water and bumps into your paws. Before the water can suck it back in, you snatch it up greedily.	+1 Gnawing Hoof
	More walking...great. You know better than to mess with floodwaters. Reaching higher ground isn't hard, but now you have to waste more time waiting for the flood to die down before continuing on.	N/A
Season(s): Autumn

A large wooden boat sits abandoned, overturned and growing thick with moss. Why did the humans just leave it here in the middle of nowhere?
Dig	You dig underneath the boat, hoping to find something worth your while. A familiar smell reveals an acorn buried here not too long ago...well, better than nothing.	+1 Acorn
	Digging around the boat doesn't reveal much of interest. Worms, a beetle, lots of smelly mud...but there is a small patch of herbs growing just under the hull, and you know they're good for boosting health. Bitter, but worth it!	+5 HP
	The boat makes for a good shelter if you can just dig deep enough. After a few minutes of digging you make a hole big enouh to squeeze under the boat. A perfect cave, and you didn't even have to work very hard! You curl up for a quick nap before it's time to be on your way.	+4% Energy
	This is the perfect hiding place! You dig around the boat, searching to see if someone may have stashed something. Nothing...damn!	N/A
Investigate	Further investigation reveals that it sure is a boat, the boatest boat you ever did see. Why do humans like to float on the water, anyway? You decide to leap up onto it and see what all the fuss is about. It's a nice place to perch and watch the world go by, at least.	+2% Energy +1 HP
	The boat has a lot of interesting scents all over it, but there doesn't seem to be much here besides wood and...more wood. You notice there's an acorn stashed near the bow and seems to have been forgotten, so it's yours now.	+1 Acorn
	Driven by curiosity, you investigate the boat. It smells damp and wood seems to be rotting in parts. The oars look sturdy enough, though. They're large and odd to drag back to your pack, but it may be useful later.	+1 Oar
	Moss, wood, and mud. What a combination. A boring one, that is. The boat reveals no secrets, and you head on your way.	N/A
Season(s): Winter

A tiny green chameleon is focused on hunting, ignoring you completely. Fascinated by its methods, you stop for a while. Suddenly, one of its eyes stares directly at you while the other remains focused on its prey. That's a bit unnerving...
Observe	This is one of the slowest hunts you've ever seen, but it does have the right amount of tension as you follow the careful steps of the chameleon. You hold your breath for a while as you witness the moment of the catch. Its hunt didn't last long, but you feel as if you spent hours watching and you feel rested.	+4% Energy
	The chameleon locks its gaze on a tiny butterfly it intends to catch and you almost feel the tension as you follow the careful, slow steps of the reptile. The butterfly notices the danger and flies right into you. You can't pass up the opportunity to catch it yourself! The chameleon stares at you with beady, disappointed eyes.	+1 Butterfly Wing
	You almost hold your breath as you observe the chameleon getting ready to hunt. It's an incredibly slow performance but the moment of the catch is always funny to see, and it's a rare sight. The chameleon stares at you with one eye, and while it has no expression, you feel that it wants you to either go away or pay for the show.	N/A
Look around	The chameleon has its dinner right in front of its mouth, so maybe there will be something nice for you as well? You catch the scent of something interesting, but it's faint, and you have to try several spots to find it. Finally, you discover a half-eaten rodent, but it smells good and is still fresh.	+4 HP
	If there are some insects for the chameleon to catch, then perhaps there is something interesting for you as well! You begin to sniff around, and you catch an interesting scent nearby, but it seems that whatever was there, has already been taken.	N/A

Clouds of mosquitoes are everywhere! They fill your mouth and nose and bite at your eyes. Yikes!
Swat	You try and swat at the clouds of bugs, but there's far too many for you to be effective. Crouching low, you make your way to some bushes to escape the annoying humming. No choice now but to wait for the swarm to die down. May as well take a nap, eh?	+4 HP
	While swatting at the swarms, you notice a large group of them swarming low over something shiny on the ground. Swatting as you go, you make your way over to their treasure--its yours now! Suckers... literally. You got +1 SC !	?1-3 SC
	Your paws are big and the mosquitoes are tiny--surely you can smoosh a few! Swatting at the clouds isn't really the most effective strategy, and by exposing yourself so spectacularly the bugs take the opportunity to pepper you with bites. Yeesh!	-3 HP
	While swatting at the swarms, you notice a large group of them swarming low over something shiny on the ground. Swatting as you go, you make your way over to their treasure... Oh, it's just a dirty pebble.	N/A
Find another path	There's no way you're going to put up with annoying mosquitoes. They can have this spot! You trek another path, happy to be clear of their humming and biting. Your choice pays off as you come across a nice thick patch of herbs. Can never have too much of this stuff!	+1 Guaiacum
	The dumb bugs can have their swarming--there's plenty of other paths to take. In fact, this route in particular is easy to traverse, and you find yourself not having to work as hard to stay out of the slippery muck of the swamp. Perks of having a brain larger than a pinprick.	+1 HP
	You weren't planning on having to find another way, but it looks like there's no other choice. Why does it always seem like there's obstacles in your way?	N/A
Season(s): Summer

The size of this jacana's feet make you wonder how fast it can move across the water. It freezes in place when it notices you, too wary to move any further under your piercing gaze.
Watch	The bird meets your gaze, studying you as closely as you study it. It's a match of wills, and ultimately you are the victor! The bird turns away and moves off, submissive under your piercing gaze. You feel energized!	+5% Energy
	You stay still to watch it, and after a bit it slowly begins to move, eyes always on you. Seeing you're not interested in attacking, it goes back to its foraging in the water. It's quiet and peaceful, and you enjoy watching it for a while. The bird eventually moves off and you head on your way, refreshed.	+3 HP
	You stare at the bird and it stays frozen in place for quite some time. The tension seems to get to it, and it eventually flies off, not sparing you another glance.	N/A
Attack	This bird doesn't stand a chance! With a powerful leap you pin it under the water, dispatching it easily. Nothing like a tasty water bird!	+1 Jacana Carcass
	Victory is within reach, and you feel your jaws close around the bird's throat--only to clamp down on air! The jacana slips away at the last second, leaving you to splash noisily in the water and watch as it flies away. All is not lost, however; your nose picks up a nearby nest, and you help yourself to the eggs. Slurp!	+2 HP +5% Hunger
	Victory is within reach, and you feel your jaws close around the bird's throat--only to clamp down on air! The jacana slips away at the last second, leaving you to splash noisily in the water and watch as it flies away. No tasty jacana for you today.	N/A

Season(s): Winter

An enormous mountain of meat rests on the shore. It's a whale that has been dead for a while but the cool weather has kept it fresh and very tempting.
Check	You are excited at first, but the more you sniff the meat, the more doubts you have. There is something odd about it, and you always trust your gut. You decide to take a break instead of having a snack, which is well deserved after all the work you do every day.	+3% Energy
	The meat looks fresh but there is something odd about it. Having some doubts before taking a bite, you decide to check the surrounding area instead. The place is mostly empty, but you manage to find something interesting.	+1 Charcoal
	You carefully sniff the meat, but there is something that makes you hesitate. You always trust your gut. If it says not to touch the whale, you listen. However, taking a bone seems harmless, and it may be useful later.	+1 Whale Rib Bone
Eat	The best thing about finding this whale is the fact that there is no one around to disturb you. You take a few bites, saving some of the meat for later. Score!	+1 Whale Meat
	Upon moving closer, you detect an odd scent, making you suspicious about the quality of the meat. After hesitating for a while, you decide to listen to reason rather than your stomach. You could end up with an infection or something worse.	N/A
	You move closer to take a bite. It's tasty but also almost so cold that it feels frozen, which makes it difficult to fully enjoy the meal. Well, better than nothing!	+3% energy
Season(s): Autumn

This hard-shelled friend smells salty like the sea and is funny to watch scuttle across the ground. Where could it be going?
Follow	You follow it as it goes about its business, coming across some debris by the water. It picks up a feather in its claws and waves it in your face, clearly intending for you to take it. Satisfied, it moves farther down the shore and tries to give you more things to take. You don't have endless space to carry things; you're a wolf, afterall! You decline and trot away, happy with the feather.	+1 Skua Feather
	The crab makes its way to the shoreline, obviously on the lookout for something in particular. From time to time it pauses and puts something in its mouth, so small that you can't see. You pad along, hoping to find something of interest, but it seems a nice walk along the shore is all you get today.	+4 HP
Approach	The crab eyes you warily as you approach, and the thought of a tasty, salty snack is too much to handle. Avoiding its claws, you manage to crush it between your jaws. Mmm, seafood!	+4% Energy
	You approach the crab, but it's not risking anything today. It snaps at your soft paws with its claws, landing a few hits before taking off across the tundra.	-3 HP
	Who had the bright idea of approaching a crab? Oh yes, that's right--you. Without a backward glance, the crab ignores you and takes off across the tundra.	N/A

With its tiny size and considerable floof, this little auklet can't be older than a fledgling. It looks like it's waiting for something. Maybe its parents are due back soon?
Investigate	The fledgling huddles on the rock, sitting awkwardly as if it's on top of something. With a paw you shoo the bird away and reach under its fluffy body to retrieve the object. What a pretty shell! The fledgling won't mind if you take it. It's too busy seeing its life flash before its eyes.	+1 Mollusk Shell
	You decide to sniff around to see if there's anything useful before the parents come back and lay claim to it. The fledgling huddles on the rock and doesn't move as you sniff around it. It knows that trying to fight back won't do it any good. Your nose picks up the smell of some herbs, and you snatch them up quickly as the cries of the parents sound on the wind. Time to go!	+2 Dandelion
	You give the rock and the surrounding area a good once-over, but there's nothing to be had here. There's no time to look further, either--the fledgling cries out and an adult responds, far too close for comfort. You slip away before its parents return.	N/A
Snatch	You swipe at the fledgling with your claws, causing it to tumble off of the rock with a squeak. You move to catch it, but shiny cones on the rock catch your attention. The bird must have been sitting on them! These are better than a tiny little snack anyway.	?1-5 SC
	Just as you're about to snatch the fledgling, angry shrieks from above catch your attention. Its parents are back! They dive at you as you run away with a huff, easy meal thwarted.	N/A

The unbearable noise above your head is all-too familiar. The sight of so many gulls means one thing for sure: there is something they're after, and it might be worth your while to check it out.
Follow	You decide to follow the gulls to where they land. There's always a chance that they found something that may be of interest. When you arrive, there's very little left for you but there are some tasty fish remains that are still fresh. It's not much but at least it's something.	+3 HP
	You decide to follow the birds. Your experience tells you that there is always something interesting to find wherever they land. You try to ignore their irritating noise while digging and sniffing around and your patience pays off quite quickly when you notice something shiny in the ground.	?5 SC
	Where there are a lot of gulls, there is always something interesting to find. You follow the birds without any rush, intending to check out any spot they decide to land on. Suddenly, something tiny falls from the sky and hits you on the head. What a pleasant surprise! You don't even have to go searching; it seems like something interesting things found you instead.	+1 Lucky Foot
	You follow the gulls, trying to ignore the noise and look forward to a potential reward for your efforts. When you arrive at their landing spot, there's absolutely nothing for you. If there had been anything to eat, you're way too late. If there was any hidden treasure, it's gone now.	N/A
Chase	The best way to get rid of these unwanted guests is to show them an example of what may happen if they decide to overstay their welcome. With a low growl, you run after the birds, catching one of them effortlessly with the first attempt. The birds seem unfazed, but at least you have a snack.	+10 HP
Season(s): Summer

The calls of a skua make you pause and your eyes catch the form of one diving up and down at something on the ground. It must be harassing its next meal!
Antagonize	It looks like the skua is striking at a flopping fish! Should be easy enough to snatch it. You wait until the bird lands the killing blow, and as it prepares to dig in, you rush in and swipe it right from under its beak. Ha!	+1 Delicate Meat
	You run and snap at the bird's dangling feet, much to its dismay. It shrieks and dives at you but you won't be deterred. It sets its sights to the large flock nearby and disappears among them. There's no way you'll find it now. It looks like this is a common place for these birds to gather, and you spot remains scattered about. Nothing worth eating, but this bird skull is still intact!	+1 Skua Skull
Attack	Launching into the air, you strike at the bird with your paws. It fights back and savagely pecks at you with its beak. You're forced to back off, and the bird heads back to the safety of its flock. You turn to head back and notice a familiar herb peeking through the soil. It's not enough to bring with you, but it will do nicely to help the peck wounds.	?2-4 HP

Growls and squeaks fill the air as you happen upon a mother bear and her three cubs. It must be their first outing after hibernating for the winter!
Play	The mother seems tired, so you approach and gesture for the cubs to come play. The mother hesitates, but after a moment the cubs tackle you to the ground in excitement. It doesn't last long, but it was nice while it lasted. The cubs follow their mother back to the den, looking a bit more worn out than before. Maybe they'll let their mother sleep now.	+4 HP
	You attempt to play with the cubs, but the mother bear is defensive. She snarls and swipes at you, leaving a small gash. The cubs growl too, imitating their mother, and begin to move towards you. That's the signal to leave!	-3 HP
Find the den	With the bears distracted, now's your chance to check our their den! You're careful to make sure you aren't noticed as you follow their scent. The tempting smell of food drives you forward, and you're able to snag a couple of small things stashed at the back of the cave. Heck yeah!	+2 Rugged Flipper
	The den isn't too far, and you know you have a bit of time before the bears make their way back to it. The smell of a fresh carcass reaches your nose, and as you approach the den you see a dead walrus sitting at the entrance. It's your lucky day!	+1 Walrus Carcass
	Should be a piece of cake to find the den, right? The bears' scent trail is unmistakable... that is, until it collides with several others and you can't make out which way they went. Guess it's time to brush up on your scent trail skills.	N/A

A young jaguar cub is having fun chasing some birds. It seems like it's trying to polish its hunting moves, but it's still so young that it's far from being intimidating.
Hunting lesson	The cub has potential, it's clear. You offer to show it some useful tricks, using the time as a chance to learn something new about jaguars. The cub listens and copies you perfectly, but its attention span is short, so you end up playing together after a while.	+6% Energy

Swipe at	Seriously, what is up with this guy? You try and swipe at it to get it to retreat so that you can return to your peaceful trek. No such luck, though; your actions only seem to piss it off more, and with a /crack/ it rips a branch down and lodges it toward your head. It's rude, sure, but it's the monkey's loss. This branch will be great for making a new den.	+1 Large Branch

Compliment its feathers	You wag your tail, walking up to the spoonbill as it comes to a halt on the shore. It looks wary, but doesn't immediately fly off.

What a strange looking creature! Its fur looks soft to the touch. It peers down at you curiously from the branches, wary but not afraid.
Hunt	Time to take advantage of this anteater's good nature! Just like a good predator should. It's quite surprised when you leap up and yank it down by its tail, but it's toast before it even hits the ground.	+1 Silky Anteater Carcass
	You leap up, trying to snatch its tail, but the anteater jumps higher up in the tree with a scowl. It shoves a bird's nest down at your head, causing the eggs to fall and break. It did that on purpose! You lap up what you can and leave the anteater in peace.	+2 HP +10% Hunger

	The anteater tilts its head in response to your greeting, but doesn't reply. Instead it moves to a branch that the sun is touching, and curls up for a nap. Say...that's not a bad idea! You decide to join it for a quick snooze.	+4 HP
	Amused by your attempts to speak with it, the anteater scents the air before dropping to the ground and shuffling several paces away. It returns with an herb in its mouth, and sets it at your paws before leaping back into the tree. How kind!	+2 Pineapple Leaf

A group of humans treks along the path quite a distance ahead, their colorful pelts making it easy to see them. They haven't noticed you...perhaps there's an opportunity here.
Track	You track them for a while, thinking they'll stop after a bit. They keep trekking forward into thicker and thicker brush, making it increasingly harder to follow them. You finally have to stop when you get tangled up in some thorns. Ugh!	-2 HP
	Not only are they colorful, but they smell good, too--maybe they'll stop for a meal soon! You follow them for a while until they finally settle in a clearing and take food out of crinkly paper. They're loud as they eat, and suddenly one lets out an angry shout as their food drops to the ground. They pick it up and launch it into the woods... and it lands right at your paws! Why would they waste such good food? Maybe dirt isn't healthy for them to eat.	+1 Sausage
	Humans like to drop things, so maybe if you keep close you'll get lucky! These humans seem to be unusually tidy, however, and when there's still no sign of anything after quite a long time, you decide to head back to your usual path.	N/A
Scare	Once they pause for a break, you take the opportunity to scare them silly. It doesn't quite go as you hoped, though--instead of being afraid, they begin to shout and wave their walking sticks. One of them tosses sharp rocks at you and lands one square on your head! You retreat, knowing it's not worth it to try and put up a fight.	N/A
	You sneak up behind them when they pause for a break, opening their packs and talking to one another. With a growl you leap in front of them, and to your delight they let out cries of fear and scramble to their feet. They run, packs left forgotten on the ground. Ha! The spoils are yours to claim!	+3 HP

A large bearded seal blocks your way, looking at you almost as if it intends to provoke you. Whatever its intentions are, it's quite intimidating.
Be friendly	You move closer slowly, smiling in a friendly way and trying to show your best side. Just as you begin to think it's not working, the seal rolls onto its side, inviting you to join in. You're not a master of imitating the seal's style, but it must be the funniest thing that the creature has seen because it can't stop laughing.

	You bare your teeth, trying to look intimidating, but the seal doesn't care. The more you stare at it, the more doubts you start to have. Maybe it's better to retreat before this creature decides to charge at you.	N/A

At first you're fooled into thinking a chunk of ice is floating your way. You quickly realize that it's not ice at all--it's a beluga swimming towards you!
Bark	You observe the creature carefully, and when it becomes clear that it means to interact with you, you start barking anxiously. Though it doesn't stop the beluga, it approaches to leave something on the ice before disappearing into the cold waves again. It seems like it wanted to be friendly but got discouraged.	+2 Puffin Feather
	At first, you simply observe the beluga, but when it gets really close, you realize that it clearly wants something from you. You start barking anxiously, which stops the big creature. It stares at you for a few seconds and then disappears among the waves again. Whatever it wanted, you successfully discouraged it.	N/A
Play	You welcome the beluga with a friendly bark and wagging tail. The creature approaches, performing a few impressive water tricks just for you. In return, you roll on the ice and you both spend a while there, having good fun. There may be more differences than similarities between you but some things will always remain universal. Just before swimming away, the beluga leaves something on the ice.	+1 Gull Feather
	You bark with excitement, moving closer, intrigued by the creature. The beluga seems interested in you, too, and performs a few breathtaking water tricks. While you can't join, just watching feels good enough. Suddenly, the beluga comes even closer, leaving something on the ice before swimming away.	+1 Skua Feather

It's always wise to avoid humans, but a harsh environment makes it even easier to want to avoid them. They have tools to dig holes in the ice, and even more tools to take food out of them. Those things look dangerous!
Steal	The humans are so absorbed in their activities that they aren't paying attention to anything behind them. You don't have much time to act, so you grab the first fish you can reach. It's not big, but it's tasty, especially since you didn't have to catch it yourself.	+3 HP

You manage to get away, feeling something sharp hit your back—a warning from the humans. That was close!	+3 Charcoal
	Step by step, you try to get closer to the fish that has already been caught. It's unreal how tempting the smell is, but you try to remain calm.

A harp seal rests calmly on the snow with its fluffy pup by its side. The little pup looks at you with curiosity rather than fear.
Hunt	It's clear that the seals don't see you as a threat, as they let you approach quite close. When you grab the pup, it's too late for its mother to react and when she starts chasing you, you're already far beyond her reach.	+1 Seal Pup Carcass
	Your plan is promising at first, but the seals can sense your intentions and become more anxious with each step you take. Suddenly, the pup's mother warns you not to approach any closer and points at a few bones lying nearby, trying to convince you that they're the remains of her previous enemies. You don't believe a word she says, but you're also not in the mood for a fight. If you can't have a meal, you'll at least have something to play with. Without saying a word, you take the bones and go about your day.	+2 Bones
	The seals mostly ignore you as you slowly approach them, but as you get closer the pup gets more distressed, perhaps sensing your malicious intentions. Its mother charges at you without warning, and you're lucky to be quick enough to avoid more serious wounds.	-2 HP
	You try to get as close as possible without looking suspicious, but the seals see right through your charade. You're forced to retreat, as fighting with a full-grown seal protecting its pup won't end well for you.	N/A
Play	You approach slowly, wagging your tail and trying to look harmless. To your surprise, the mother allows her pup to play with you for a while, and soon you both roll in the snow, sharing a good time. This young seal is not unlike wolf pups. The pup shows you its little treasure: fresh duck eggs! Seeing your hungry stare, it selflessly shares some with you.	+2 Duck Eggs
	Trying to appear friendly and harmless, you approach slowly, giving the seals time to accept your presence. Your plan works, and the pup comes closer to inspect you, while its mother watches carefully, ready to intervene at any moment. Wanting to avoid causing harm, you roll in the snow, letting the pup poke you with its nose as much as it wants. As you prepare to leave, the pup gives you an acorn, insisting that you take it. Is there something special about it?	+1 Acorn
	You try to show your friendly intentions as you approach the seals, but while the pup is very curious about you, its mother looks defensive and ready to attack at any moment. Perhaps today is not the day for a play date.	N/A

An annoying squawking sound from above makes it difficult to focus. When your patience reaches its limit, you look up, prepared to take action.
Offer Acorn (will only appear if the player has an Acorn)	There's one effective way to make the bird stop: stuffing its beak with food! In fact, the same would work for you. The bird takes the acorn, giving you something in return.	+1 Recipe: Playful Jaeger
Jump	When the bird starts teasing you again, you decide you've had enough. You jump as high as you can, catching it easily.	+10% Hunger

The human voice is so specific that you realize immediately what the shrieking noises are; but these humans are laughing, which makes curiosity boil under your skin. When you follow the sound, you see two of humans enjoying sliding down a snowy hill.
Approach the hill	After some hesitation, you decide not to wait until the humans are gone. You let them mind their own business, and they should do the same, right? Unfortunately, as soon as they recognize your silhouette, they start panicking, leaving their sleds on the snow. At least you have what you wanted: peace and the entire area to yourself to check carefully. It's only a matter of time until you find something useful.	+1 Large Branch
		+1 Large Leaf
		+1 Large Rock
	You don't try to hide yourself, believing that the humans won't care about you if you ignore them. However, as soon as you appear in their sight, they start panicking and talk to each other really fast, which leaves you confused. Suddenly, one of them raises their arm to toss something at you in the hope of distracting you for a while. Your nose recognizes the smell of a whale bone. Did they want to feed you? You hope they throw something at you again, but when you look, the humans are gone.	+1 Whale Rib Bone
	While you don't want humans to see you, the hill itself looks interesting enough to take a closer look. You have to wait a really long time, as the humans just don't want to leave, sliding down the hill over and over again. When you are finally able to approach it, you don't find anything worth your attention. What a waste!	N/A

You quickly grab a fish and run away before the seal is able to react.	+1 Dead Fish
	You approach the seal, sitting next to the creature in silence. It stares at you anxiously at first, but when it notices your peaceful attitude, the tension disappears.

As you get ready to continue your journey, you feel refreshed, like after a nap.	+3 HP

As soon as you sit on the snow, it attacks you, fiercely protecting its little spot. You quickly run away, grateful that you are fast enough to avoid a more serious injury.	-2 HP
	You move closer with the peaceful intention of resting here for a while. The seal remains silent even when you try to start a conversation. When you run out of ideas, you decide to leave, feeling a bit frustrated. If this seal acts this way all the time, then it's no wonder why they usually live alone.	N/A
Approach	When you take a closer look, you notice that the seal is eating something. The perfect opportunity! With one precise jump, you steal the meat right in front of the seal's nose. It knows you're faster, so it doesn't even try to chase you.	+1 Delicate Meat
	As you get closer, you notice the seal is munching on something that smells delicious. You lick your mouth a few times, making the creature feel a bit uneasy. It turns its back to you, showing a complete lack of interest and no intention to share its meal. You sniff around, only to find crab remains covered with snow. It's not your preference, but it may be useful later.	+1 Crab Leg
	You move a bit closer, noticing that the seal is eating something. It pauses its meal, waiting for you to leave. After a while, it becomes clear to the creature that you're going to stay there, so it shares a small portion with you, asking you to eat it somewhere else.	+2 HP

This may be the biggest boat you've ever seen! It seems like humans live on it temporarily while they explore the area. When you spot them on the shore, they appear tiny in comparison to the massive construction.
Sneak in	It's not easy to hide among so many people, but you remember that their sense of smell is weak. With so much strange stuff on the boat, you may succeed if you find enough objects to hide behind. This sounds like a challenge! You manage to enter the board with your heart racing in your chest. There's not much time to fool around, so you trust your nose to lead you to the closest treat there is to find, and you're not disappointed.	+1 Chicken Roast
	It may not be the wisest decision, but there are no rewards without risk. You enter the boat carefully, hiding in the shadows and pretending you're not there. It's not a playground, so you decide to retreat as soon as you find something even remotely interesting. After a while of intense sniffing, you spot something worth taking.	+1 Lucky Foot
Sniff around	There is some human equipment left on the shore, and it's safer to check that out instead of trying to sneak into the ship. You still remain cautious, aware of even the most subtle crack in the snow. One of the boxes looks easy to open, and the scent is irresistible. It takes a while and a little force, but you finally succeed, making a lot of noise. With no time to think, you grab the tasty meat to eat in peace.	+5 HP
	You decide not to go inside and instead look around the outside. There's a lot of human stuff in all shapes and sizes. You have no idea what they use it for, and even guessing is beyond your imagination, as everything they do is completely alien to you. Suddenly, you catch a nice, herbal smell, leading you to something a bit more familiar. The bite-sized snack is small, but you feel better instantly.	+2 HP
	Checking the boat from the inside is truly tempting, but you have to be realistic. It could end really badly, so it's better to stay away. However, there are some items on the shore that you find worth checking out. A very inviting scent lures you even more, but suddenly, a shouting human voice scares you and forces you to run. It was all too risky anyway.	N/A

Endless honking erupts in the air as a large flock of geese block out the sky. They must be on their way to seek warmer weather for the winter!
Follow their path	You follow them on foot as best you can, hoping they stop for a rest soon and you can have a nice fresh goose to eat. They are much quicker than you in the air, and eventually disappear from view. Drat! You're able to find a fresh patch of herbs for your herbalist at least.	+1 Yarrow

Get their attention	You bark and leap into the air, trying to get their attention. They look at you in amusement, and something glints through the air as it falls to your paws. Who knew geese were rich?	?4 SC
	The geese ignore your attempts, and leave you sulking. With a grumble you decide it's time for a nap to forget your embarassment.	+4 HP
