There was no way to strategize your location. The wolves seemed random, so if you were on the wrong side of the pen you simply couldn't. defend. If there was an indication of where the wolves would come from, you could eliminate that unfair randomness.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>2. There's no reason not to spam your sheep, so to try to mitigate randomness you can fire sheep off towards where the wolves come from.
