This feel oddly real and heterosexual, I don't like it
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.
Don't worry, I'm pretty sure it's fake (and gay)
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.
It's fake because it's yukon. They don't have internet in yukon. Or people... never mind a school.
They have GMC SUVs though
Funny. I like.
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.
Terrifying? Nah, that’s just a good boi
Still 3 out of 4.
If you mean 3 out of 4 facts: "Individual weights can vary from 32 kilograms (71 lb) to 60 kilograms (130 lb)." Which is well within the range of a large dog.
"A wolf that has left its pack may travel up to 500 km (310.7 mi) to breed." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interior_Alaskan_wolf
What?
"A wolf is a
Still 3 strong reasons the story is more likely to be fake.
Dude, the article I linked literally mentions solitary wolves walking more than 500 km in search of a mate. Sure they "usually" move in packs, but that is what makes this story unusual, not impossible.
"Massive" is relative. To a child a 30 kg dog is massive.
They are not bigger than big dogs, they aren't always in packs, and they're skittish yeah but not usually that aggressive. This story could well be fake but it's perfectly plausible.
It probably helps that OP wasn't scared. He didn't act like a prey animal and flee, which can trigger hunting instincts. I also can't help but wonder if the wolf recognized a human child as being "young." I know dogs can do that - I've seen them change behavior around tiny humans and tolerate things from them that they wouldn't tolerate from adults. Granted, domesticated dogs have had many generations to acclimate themselves to us, but I wouldn't be surprised if a wild wolf recognized that OP was a "human puppy" and not a significant threat.
Also, OP had food, and considering the wolf went right for the pop tart when it was thrown, it's possible such a sociable, intelligent creature was playing nice in hopes of being given some all along.
Who knows? I'd say it's definitely a plausible story. If the story had been about a mountain lion, I'd have my doubts. But wolves don't usually go out of their way to antagonize humans. If some of them were able to be domesticated long ago, the same traits that brought them close to humans in the first place may still exist in the wild population.
