[@scifistories1977]

I love the Deadly, Deadly, Humans universe! Just like the author says, there is a little bit of story building and then your in! I have a dog, and this was a great story.

He is, without a doubt, one of the best writers I have found to date. As I have dyslexia reading has always been a problem. So, being able to listen to a well written story is a true joy!

Ye bro that was funny as hell 😂😂😂😂

[@shorthand1121]

Definitely don't apologize for the length ... its a deeply empathetic story as most of the Amia stories are.

[@jnachtig2]

Young girl. “he won’t bite” Alien. “What is he named after” Young girl. “An ancient mythical beast that is fated to destroy the world” Ragnar. “Am not wolf…am doggo and good boy”

[@MargaretKolosky]

I think you mean Fenrir, not Ragnar. Ragnar was the name of a king, Fenerir was the name of the god dog that Thor's sister used to fight the enimies of their father.

[@jnachtig2]

@@MargaretKolosky good point. My ancient Norse mythology is shaky. But Ragnar is still “not wolf, good boi”. 🙂

[@Harro150988]

@@MargaretKolosky Fenrir was the wolf who was the son of Loki and who, after the Aesir determined to chain him up, bit the hand off Tyr (god of the sea). He has a pivotal role in Ragnarok and may have been regarded as the father of Skoll, the wolf prophesied to eat the sun.

[@alam5534]

​@@jnachtig2no worry for the mistake, was a good funny point. Been named as a Nordic King that make big invasions and that is most considered a demigod in the nordic traditions is still hilarious for a good doggy 😂😂😂

[@CHRF-55457]

Ah. The average interaction between a pitbull named Destroyer vs a pitbull named Cupcake or Princess lol.

[@walterf1205]

Length and direction aren't a problem for this story at all. It gives a "realistic" feel of a personal log/journey/diary.

[@terryhayward7905]

I only have one complaint about this story, it is not long enough, the build up was perfect, an alien view of dogs is very realistic. I really hope that you have, or will write more long stories, Thank you.

[@omramchandrajieducational]

im laying in my college dorm with a buring fever right now. I love listening to these stories

[@scifistories1977]

I hope you feel better soon! We have plenty of stories to see you through.

[@jontun4511]

No need for the apology at the beginning. This is a fabulous and imaginative story. Well done author! and thank you for publishing it.

[@LeBrebaDuh]

this is by far one of my favorite scifi stories on this channel

[@garethmcguinness377]

Never apologize Wrick, we love anything and everything to do with this universe

[@droolingfangirl]

Excellent story. The thing is when I meet a strange dog I always let it thoroughly sniff me before I try petting it.

[@janjager2906]

The way to go!

[@kieyotiemcdermott7195]

We have a wolf-hybrid sanctuary. This was a nice find, moreso as a former rancher.

[@andrewbignell9342]

Thanks!

[@scifistories1977]

Thank you Andrew!

[@ras0725]

I absolutely loved this story. The search and rescue of Bethany gave me chills and some tears. That alone would make a good movie plot

[@samuelquiles8956]

I'm pleased to hear this story. Vastly different than the usual human versus alien rehash permeating sci-fi. I look forward to the rest of the stories from the author.

[@lindacarter457]

That was great - one of the Best I've heard!! Good, well-written, narrated story full of facts that I'll remember whenever I think of cattle, farms, and especially dogs!😊

[@danarose2677]

This is one of the best ones I have heard yet, on any channel.

[@tttpppbbbaaa]

Can't wait for Amnia to meet cats

[@SovietReunionYT]

Same!

Oh... oh no... god... no...

​@@evanbeers1644😂😂😂😂 I have a cat and Im totally accord with your reaction

[@javi_fc]

@@alam5534 "totally in accord" is the correct grammar. I mean no offense with this correction. just like helping

[@israelquiroz7245]

I got $5 on the cats.

[@coyote271280]

This is probably the best sci fi one-shot in the HFY genre. Loved it.

[@iarejester]

This is definitely one of my favourite ongoing series.

[@EllenCrawford-h1f]

Lost my best friend this last Fall this story brings back fond memories of him. Thank you for that 🙏😊

[@davidbarr1579]

Cowboys, Aliens and Dogs what more could anyone ask for!!!...I enjoyed it immensely!!!👍👍

[@meistersgarage748]

The ending was perfect. "The third happiest moment"

[@Low_Fidelity_3D]

Wish Rick would make more long stories tbh

[@pinero50]

Not Bad.. not bad at all, not many stories have me grinning like a fool :)

[@jeffreylewis2089]

One of the better stories I've listened to. Very thought provoking.

[@captjinxmarine9832]

This story in top five.

[@The_Viscount]

I love dogs. My family has a story like the one about Bethany. My great grandfather was shot, and his dog got help to him in time. They really are amazing.

[@Just_Gun_Lover]

My bird just do a little trolling on a science consortium using a personal dog, bdw I almost laughed so hard In the end that I wake up my dog, girl has a look like, "again? ".

[@kathleenhensley5951]

This is so very good. It's a shame no one told him about cats. Perfection! you are a great story teller.

[@rudikeunen4327]

Excellent story. Very empathically written. Indeed, don´t apologise for the length. It isn´t too long. The pace is excellent and you succeed to make the reader a part of the story. ❤🐺

[@the_it_guy3626]

One of his best stories yet.

[@tweber2546]

incredibly intelligent and funny narrated and written. A clever observation of the special characteristics of humanity, which, in addition to the obvious, are perhaps truly unique.

[@scifistories1977]

Thank you, it's very much appreciated!

[@AdmiralStoicRum]

I like the long format videos, I can put them on while I work

[@NescienceEscape]

Very satisfying - sweet and feeling without ever overdoing it, nicely balanced.

[@jwall083]

Wolf-359, lol. Snuck that one in

[@trekaddict]

Wolf 359 is very much real, albeit IIRC without habitable planets.

[@sparkeyjames]

Near the city of Lupercal. Canis lupus familiaris (latin name for the genus of dogs).

[@ekhidna4]

Be them water, feather, walking, slithering, or otherwise, if fren shaped, they frens.

[@CryptidsRoost]

It is great to have longer length stories. As a narrator myself; this account I narrate horror/creepypastas, many of these stories are minimum of half hour long. In the last four years that I have had my channel, the longest story I have done was five, yes FIVE HOURS long!!

[@grumpynanny7402]

So enjoyed this story. Thanks. Loved the humour. ❤

[@tomasburgos7017]

Loved the story very, very, much. Thanks!

[@918guy]

Scientist: "Damn it Hella. I thought I told you Amia are NOT just big chickens." Hella: "Ok. Ok. So what you're saying is... I can still hunt chickens!" Scientist: "No. No chickens." Hella: "Ok Ok Ok. Got it. So if I wake up in my dog house next to a chicken... I can still hunt THAT chicken."

[@SovietReunionYT]

My favorite part of these stories is Amia's insatiable scientific curiosity driving them forward despite a powerful instinct to avoid danger. Although in this story I'm kinda taken out of it by the mention of there still being factory farming of animals for meat back on Earth. The way I would have written it so a ranching planet makes sense in a high-tech future is, the Amia scientist in that part of the exposition around 21:58 says something along these lines instead: "Of course they dont really kill animals for meat anymore back on Earth, except for some small-scale cultural practices among certain groups. They consider it cruel if done without necessity. Nowadays they grow brainless meat out of cells, like it's a plant, and consume that for the carnivorous part of their dietary preferences. But there's only so much biomass you can get out of a planet without destroying its native wildlife, so they've established this planet as a farm world to supply Earth. And apparently grazing herbivores are a very efficient way of turning poor quality grasses into calories sutable for human consumption. Trying to grow and process edible plants here would require orders of magnitude more infrastructure and labor. And with the promise of easing the pressure on Earth's over-exploited habitats, few have had objections to this project."

[@wfirebaugh]

The start of the story from the aleans perspective was really funny. I enjoyed the telling.

[@janjager2906]

Wow, what a good story! Even though at the end I could see where it was going it got me emotional (in a good way😊😊). Thank you for introducing us to this writer. 🙏

[@williamkleinknecht6303]

One of my all time favorites from this channel ❤️

[@dsandstrom93]

Another great story. I really like the perspective of the Amia. :)

[@davidshaw380]

Honestly, this is good work. bordering on greatness. Is this a published novel? It should be.

[@vikingbanana2404]

These space stories are so good that in learning more about my own species

[@whiteblacklion2437]

Finally a nice story that is longer than 20-30 minutes and a cool story to go with it.😁

[@johnhatheway9918]

Great story. I just discovered this and I know that I will have this channel playing in the background at work!

We're not carnivores, we're omnivores.... :D Amazing story!

That was excellent Thank you 😃🐺👍

[@briansouthard3773]

This is a better written story than most of the AI stuff I've been hearing lately. Either it's human written or you have a much better editing program. Either way, thank you for quality content.

[@WillFredward7167]

I really love this universe. Something about it allows for stories to become so deeply wholesome and satisfying. Also, love the choice of Wolf 359.

[@ryanmuhm7584]

Fantastic story. More of this please. Seeing things from an alien view is awesome and I like dogs. Gonna go check out your channel now. Cheers!

Kipling wrote a story calledThe Cat Who Walked Alone. It's a story about the taming of domestic animals. Wonder how this author would treat the subject? I would be interested to read it.

[@donaldmccorkendale5720]

Also, the length and content are absolutely fine. No need at all to apologize.

[@MouseDestruction]

Speaking of horse back riding, when they invented the train scientists were unsure what would happen to a human going faster than i think around 34 miles per hour. Nobody had ever really gone faster than a horse, or perhaps sprinting downhill, maybe on a boat? But quite a few thought your face would rip off from going too fast or your eyes would burst or something. Think steam trains at the time were approaching 60-70 miles per hour which was getting quite a bit faster than a horse.

[@JefferyScout]

I am a Dog Being and I loved this tail. Thank you. Joy Peace Love Jeffery Scout

I haven’t listened to it yet. I’m apprehensive about it and turned to the comments to make sure the dog doesn’t die. I just lost my best friend of 15 years while I was stuck in ICU. Lord help me if he dies, but I’m going to take the chance. I need a good doggo story right now!

[@scifistories1977]

It's a great story. The dogs are the stars.

[@gearond]

So...my ex wife's and my herman shepherd got to 10 years old, and like a lot of big dogs he got none spurs in his spine. This caused weakness and eventually full paralysis in the rear quarters. We found that there were wheelchairs available and bought one. Our vet told us that his acceptance of itn would be much better if we let him be fully unable to get around, dragging his rear legs, for 2+3 weeks. So that's how he was when this incident happened We took him and his two buddy Aussies to the river. It was the Metoleous near Sisters Oregon, about A mile from where it springs out of the ground. It's snow fed from 60 miles away and is about 40 degrees fahrenheit. (Read first/next comment)

[@gearond]

We had J.J. laying on the ground and the other two dogs just relaxing while we ate a picnic, right on the bank of the river. The water moves fast and is cold. All of a sudden a little 2-13 to 3 year old boy goes pat is on the riverside trail just giggle, running, and having a good time. My ex and I looked at each other and I said our loud, 'Tjats not a good idea, him wandering alone near the rivers edge." I had once tried to walk across and had to stagger out, falling with numb legs, unable too e. I lose bodily control quickly on that cold water! I was just getting up when a woman came by, going the same direction as the little boy. "Did u see a little boy?" We pointed out where he went, she ran off after him, and we sighed with released worry. About five minutes later we hear giggling and screaming coming from the direction the mother and child had gone. Up to this point, JJ had just laid wherever we put him, unless we lifted his jind quarters to walk and go to the bathroom. But now, hearing the child scream and then seeing the mother tossing him up and down in her arms, he let out a low growl and start dragging himself towards to woman. He was going to protect the little boy, whom he'd never met before. We had to tell JJ that it was OK, it's alright, good boy JJ. He completely ignored his paralysis and was going to protect the little boy. I was never so proud of him.

I have 3 predators in my house, my Cat Enzo and 2 kittens I'm training they are 65 and 80 pounds. They are the largest of the small cats and have several names sometimes called Puma or Cougar or Mountain Lion. Try sleeping with all 3 of them in your bed sure as hell don't need a blanket with a kitten on each side and 2 massive paws on my chest and Enzo on my pillow wrapped around my head front feet on one shoulder and back feed on the other. It's like having a Cat Hat and Coat.

[@eastlynburkholder3559]

I live with 2 predators, a cat and a dog. The dog (a female) will not tolerate cats on the 5 acres. The dog considers the young male cat and myself to be her puppies. I am like supply officer on a military base and we do not eat it all at once is a rule.
