  • When a human delegation arrives at an interstellar summit with two infamous Vzorix "pets" in tow, the aliens are shocked and terrified at these deadly creatures now acting tame and affectionate. As the summit continues, the Vzorix remain protective and devoted to their human masters, leading to chaos when the aliens finally push them too far.
    All of my stories are original.

      There is a fantasy series where an MC has a hell hound, direct from Hades. His name is Peaches. He is normally about the size of St. Bernard, but can become larger than an elephant. Peaches is always asking for meat (especially pastrami) saying "Meat is Life". Action, adventure, and humor. A favorite of mine.

So this Sci-fi concept has a hint of truth to it, your spot on. It's so refreshing & new, I haven't seen anything like this concept in Sci-fi in my 40 years in the west!

    All the comments talking about how we tame animals by petting reminds me of how I, as a young boy, tamed a wild catfish that lived in a lake at my grandparents' farm via the same method. My great grandparents (Grandfather's parents) taught me fishing, and caught catfish regularly, but one particular catfish caught my eye, he was way bigger than the rest and had a white spot on the top of his head, and I would pet him as he swam by the boat. After a few years of this, the special boi learned that I was a friend and he would raise his head out of the water sometimes for whole minutes just so I could pet his head. He loved it. My great grandparents were dumbfounded, and if my whole family hadn't seen the interactions unfold, to this day none of them would've believed it, in their own words.

      I think to an extent animals can sense malicious intent. They can also, however, tell very keenly when another animal or human is still a baby and/or very young, and so they tend to behave differently in those cases. When I was a toddler I was protected by one of my grandparents' dogs from their two others pretty often. The other two would get to playing and they'd be running around, but I'd be on the floor playing so if they weren't careful they'd risk trampling me. The protective dog sat with me and would attack them if they got too close during their rough-housing.@@johnmckown1267

      I worked in a wild animal park, some of the tigers were more gentle and affectionate than many house cats and the cheetahs were way better than most house cats, the wolves were nicer than most little dogs etc. I was not a fan of the lions because they ate one my wolves that got out so I was biased against them. Even the most vicious creature like a rino can be tame as heck when loved on as a baby, just like a beloved child that grows into a 7 footer they still love their substitute mommy and daddy.

    We are pack animals. We hunt in packs. We have used animals in various roles. We have "tamed" and "domesticated" the water buffalo. Arguably one of the most dangerous animals that we human use in farming today. Yet it is not even a predator. A dangerous animal is only dangerous in certain situations. When that criteria is met. All hell can break loose. We humans for the most part understand and use this in training everything from an eagles, which is never tamed, to the descendants of an extinct wild species of wolf.
    I suspect that we humans when we get off world and find animals on other worlds, will invariably make pets and/or use them in some capacity. It is what we do..

      On a farm. you do not fall down in a hog pen. The animals will kill you and eat you. In dealing with pigs it is always better to walk with caution and keep an eye on the animals as you work in that pen. the head butting is not showing affection. It is trying to knock you down to eat you.
