After a moment Rue added, "It's probably beacuse a bear makes for a better story. They say that there was once an alpha-- the mightiest alpha who ever lived. He cheated on his wife, and two illegitimate pups were born. The cheating alpha was worried his wife woud harm them, so he found a way to turn the pups into giant bears. He then grabbed them by their tails and slung them up into the sky. So now their tails are all stretched out." Rue ended the story with a smile and a shrug.
