Yeah, seeing as how loxes groundslam half the time, I'll pass.
I also don't have any mountains on my island, so wolves are also a no-go.

Meanwhile I put a bunch of torches, campfires, and workbenches out in the forest surrounding my house, further out from the wards. Checked back the next day and a bunch of them were broken and the mobs went further in to whack at the wards again.

You can raise a pair of earthen walls outside your base and let the lox wander in between them.

If you have an island that does have mountains that is close to your home base island (inside swimming distance) you can get wolves to cross. If its a bit more than swimming distance you can build a causeway over the water and have the wolves follow you. If its farther away than that you can sail them short distances in a longboat without too much difficulty. Wait for a storm and after the storm is passed sail quickly this will help prevent wave damage that may occur to the wolves from sailing.
