OK, you're not in the castle. But ... Gabe is in someone's home that he hired.

Are you found (or first seen) in Gabe's home in Germany? ;)

Are you an animal?

(If the answer to Tawm is yes, and the answer to me is no, you might be one of the zoo workers ... or the zoo manager) :)

Are you one of the signs (seen, for example, around the wolf area)?

Yes I am!

I wonder where they got this sign. I doubt they made one just for the game so maybe it was one on display at the actual zoo. It does have an error, however. In scientific naming, the genus (Canis) is always capitalized and the species and sub-species are always lower case. So it should be Canis lupus lupus. This is always done, even in book titles or journal article titles where the convention is to capitalize most words.

Yes, NBS is correct about the scientific naming. But I'm not sure about the naming ... maybe the zoo made an error? Or maybe (since zoologists are, or should be, strict about this kind of thing), maybe Sierra took a picture of the sign, and then someone thought "Hang on, they must have made a mistake", and re-created this without looking it up? :)

Just conjecturing... ;)
