2012 — The Eleventh Year
<< 2011 | Year Trail | 2013 >>
2012 saw the conclusion of the Winter Festival, Sequoia Plot, Boreas Conflict, and New Dawn Conflict, as well as a natural disaster, the Hurricane. There was upheaval in pack leadership, resulting in the disbandment of Ichika no Ho-en and Crimson Dreams. New packs Vinátta and Sangi'lak formed shortly after. This year also marked a baby boom, with an estimated 44 litters born (see 2012 Litters).
