Retire lead wolf early without ”killing” it.

I support. I would really like to make a wolf lead, and maybe still keep them around as immortal later on. 

This would have been very helpful when I first started and I had that potato wolf leading forever.   I think this is a marvellous idea.  Give it a few like retiring the breeding male, sure, but let’s make it an option.

support! this would be great for lore

Also, for people that want to immortalize their wolves for lore purposes:

When you immortalize your wolf, it does NOT show your 'Desciption/Biography'. 8/ I noticed that by looking at several wolves.

And the wolf I plan to immortalize has a long history/lore behind him. I really would like to keep that as part of him when I make him my forever wolfie. <3 

Yes please! I support this. my lead is very plain, but i still love her very much.

Oh yeah, that's a support.

As an additional idea, instead of only having the option to pay an early retirement fee, it would be fun if there was some sort of challenge where a wolf must "beat" two or more of the leader's stats for them to become the new leader. I think that would make the stats (and age, as an additional factor) even more useful and realistic. For example, a stronger and faster young wolf or a smarter and wiser old wolf can both present a challenge to the current lead.

Support! I really don't wanna kill off my first lead wolf and it wouldn't really make sense that when a lead changes, the old one suddenly dies of mysterious causes :D

Support!  If leaderboard is concerning, maybe the retired lead wolves could have some sort of marker attached to them that keeps them on the lead wolf leaderboard instead of the pack wolves lb?

I also want to correct this: “When you immortalize your wolf, it does NOT show your 'Desciption/Biography'”

They can keep their bios, my friend has one with a bio.
