There Is No Such Thing As An ‘alpha’ In A Wolf Pack. An Early Study That Coined The Term 'alpha Wolf’

There is no such thing as an ‘alpha’ in a wolf pack. An early study that coined the term 'alpha wolf’ had only observed unrelated adult wolves living in captivity. In the wild, wolf packs operate more like human families: there’s no defined sense of rank, parents are in charge until kids grow up and start their own families, younger wolves don’t overthrow the 'alpha’ to become the new leader, and social dominance fights are situational.

Brotherhood hc: Ed and Al were always on pretty even footing when they were still on their journey, but the moment Al gets his body back Ed starts having watch-the-crib-at-night Parenting Anxiety? In the hospital after the Promised Day, Ed breaks out of his room three times before they just move his bed in where Al is. His three million parents keep telling him "Listen, you need rest too, he's taken care of" & Ed's like "bUT *I* NEED TO TAKE CARE OF HIM WHAT IF HE NEEDS ME" "Ed it's ok" "NO"

10,000 times yes.

I’ve always loved Ed’s “Only I can protect Al” moments in fanfiction, but it’s true they were on pretty equal footing in canon.

I’m imagining all his parents protesting at first but then realizing that if they’re in the same room they can watch over both of them at the same time.
