      Meanwhile cats just showed up, said that they live here now. 10,000 years later, cats run the internet and more or less still the same genetically for the past 10,000 years.

          People get a dog to feel like a god. People get a cat so they have a god sitting on their chest meowing at them for food at 6 am.

    Ha ha, “looks like he’s going to call HR for inappropriate contact”

    For the record, there has never been a documented attack of a healthy wolf on a person in North America. Obviously if they get rabies or distemper or something all bets are off.

      You are wrong. Candice Berner, Kenton Carnegie and Marc Leblond were all deemed to have been killed by healthy wolves.

      There have been at least 24 non-fatal wolf attacks by healthy wolves since 2000 in north America alone: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wolf_attacks_in_North_America

      Another element that could be at play here:

      He thought it was a dog.

      Dogs, because we domesticated them, have muscles around their eyes, that allow them to make eye/eyebrow expressions.

      Wolves do not have these. Because they’re the ones we did not domesticate for millenia.

      So, if he was expecting dog expressions… wolves literally cannot make the same facial expressions.

      They essentially always look like they have RBF, in comparison to a dog.

      There have been documented healthy wolf attacks in North America. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wolf_attacks_in_North_America

      Some on the list are rabid, but the list also includes both captive and predative wolf attacks, including fatalities.

      I have someone related to me that took in a stray Maine Coon cat that was actually a Bob cat and they didn’t find out until the first vet visit. I think it had to go to some zoo or like Sanctuary place because they had it for quite a while and were feeding it like regular wet cat food.

        Yeah, it was really a spaniel, and he didn’t ‘pat its back’ with his hand.

          The spaniel dry humped him and the pop tart was off brand. And the teacher didn’t scream but just laughed

      A wolf is a massive animal, usually not white, usually in packs, and usually skittish or downright aggressive. It’s fake. But cool story.

        Alaskan Tundra wolves (wander down into Yukon sometimes) are white. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaskan_tundra_wolf

        Even the Interior Alaskan(native to Yukon) wolf ranges in color from black and White. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interior_Alaskan_wolf

          Terrifying pic in that link. I don’t think a poptart would distract that fella.

    Wolves can get rabies, that can be a factor for being more willing to socialize with people.

    No, you made a wild wolf more dangerous as it has now received food after being near a human. That wolf will now approach more people to get food.

    Dog domestication took centuries to millenia. And the most dangerous predators are those that are descended from domestic or near domestic animals.

      Both are true. Curious wolves approaching humans and getting/stealing food was very likely the first step in domestication.

      At the same time, it still holds true that it is dangerous
