Haven't heard about dry ice amputations since that furry (on 4chan? Can't remember) froze his hands so he could have "paws"
Because, as I'm sure you all know, wolves have stumps at the end of their legs. The claws come straight out from there, no more joints or digits. He's JUST like a wolf now.
FYI, it looks like that story about the paws is false.
The truth behind it is that there was a furry that somehow got severe frostbite when they fell asleep while icing their hands to deal with arthritis pain. After that, friends made a post trying to raise money for their medical bills, and they jokingly commented about getting him new paws. And that apparently spread elsewhere as "a furry amputated their hands to get paws."
