      In reality, it’s a safety thing. For wolves (and dogs, really,) taking a shit puts them in a compromised position. So, as pack animals, they watch each others back as one takes care of business.

      Fwiw, if we didn’t have purpose built rooms with locking doors and climate control, plumbing and all that, we’d be in a compromised position, too.
