How Does Everyone know Baltos Backstory?

Really, 'cause i wanna know how Steele knows, how Kaltag knows, how Nikki knows, how Star knows, how all the freaking' Townsfolk in Nome know. They all say, "he's Part Wolf", "His mother was a Wolf So he's a wolf." How does everyone suddenly know, you tell me 'cause i got nothin'. A smart story of yours or a part in the Balto films would be great. Thanks for reading!

Nobody knows, it's just how they wanted the movie to work out.

Of course, but i'm trying to make reason not just say it's another movie mess-up.

Who says it's a movie mess up...? We don't know their past. It's probable that they had encountered each other as puppies or something. Just because we don't know for sure doesn't mean it was a "mess up".

well, just the suddenness of the townspeople and dogs just knowing Balto's story. There has to be some form of logic to that or it's just another screw up. That's all

It is just how the movie went. Also, Balto had wolf-like features, so if Balto was really part wolf, they could see that. Otherwise it's just a cartoon.

How do they know he's PART-WOLF when the WOLF part comes out more. I guess Balto begged then to stop it and told them he's part wolf but that didn't work out well.

I just said above...It is a cartoon, it was produced by a team at Universal, it's just how they wanted it to go. No one knows this answer. If there was one we would give you one.

I'm just making logic if you're going to hate me for it , then I'll leave and see how long it takes for you to lock this topic as well, bye.

Mighty · **Posted:** Thu Jul 14, 2011 11:41 am

You asked a question, not for opinions. I don't want to turn this into a fight, not am I hating on anyone, I'm just giving you a realistic answer. I'm not going to lock it either, there is no reason to.

Lakota WolfDog · **Posted:** Thu Jul 14, 2011 11:42 am

Thank you for that. I can take it.

You seem to be particularly defensive and touchy about a lot of stuff (not quite unusual around here, actually). However, in spite of your reactions to what Mighty and Tibb said, the fact is that one can assume that the character has been around long enough that the people of the town would have seen him wandering in and out of the town, and even interacting with the other dogs and Boris. It is reasonable to assume, too, that people can recognize a wolf-dog from either a purebred dog or a mixed breed. Even in a cartoon universe.

Of course, as Mighty and Tibb so eloquently pointed out, it's a movie. A cartoon movie at that. A lot of things have to be taken either on faith or assumption. And that is just the way it is. Even in live action television series and movies (especially in television series), the regular actors often have to work out their own character's back stories as, beyond what little character information is usually called a series "writer's Bible" (or any other such similar term), no back story exists for characters. That is the way it goes in the industry.

I'm easily,(when someone is being a stuck up foe), ticked off. But other than that you can rest easy. Some things that I've been real angry about is people telling me "Balto 4 will never happen, You FOOL!!!" Because no one should rain on each others parade, no matter how much info you may know! But I can be good too. I'm not an overreacting jerk. But times like that will make me explode.

I'm not speaking outside the movie i'm speaking inside, to just see what you think instead of just saying that it's what the movie producers wanted.

Then I suggest you either learn to control that explosive temper, or walk away when you cannot handle a response with calm and control.
