Themes: The story delves into themes like peace, violence, and the nature of humanity (or a similar sentient species). It explores the idea of taming a savage race by understanding their behavior and potentially influencing them through their young.Plot (potential spoilers): A society of vicious warriors, known for their aggression, has inexplicably become peaceful. A sociologist is sent to their home planet to investigate the reason behind this sudden shift. The story might explore how this peace was achieved, perhaps through a focus on their young, the "Cubs of the Wolf" referred to in the title.Availability: "Cubs of the Wolf" appears to be a short story, potentially published in a science fiction magazine. You can find ebooks and free online versions of the story through sources like Project Gutenberg and Barnes & Noble.
