 Lupo Alberto is, indeed, a wolf who lives free in the woods, and is in love with a chicken, Marta, whose home (originally a real henhouse) is located on a farm populated by peculiar animals, each with its characteristics (remember Kelly earlier...): the intimidating and dull Mosè (a watchdog who greatly resembles Herriman's Officer Pupp), the cultured Alcide (a pig), the childish and "foolish" Glycerine (a duck), and, among many others, the (unintentional) sidekick of the Wolf, Henry the Mole, dishonest, libertine (but very married unfortunately for him...), profiteer, and decidedly visually impaired (he confuses Alberto with an unidentified Joe...).

 "You call him Beppe and he will answer you. But don't specify what time, don't ask him why, don't explain how. In short, don't add too much and ask him even less."
