wolf

Okay, so if you're in any way into wolves, then you're probably just as annoyed as we are by all their stereotypes. Big bad wolves, really? Wolves are the biggest goofballs ever. Wolves are some of the most affectionate creatures, showing each other love, support, and loyalty always. Wolves are basically just overgrown doggos. They're impossible not to love. 

If you're one of those people who understand the goofy majesty of wolves like we do, this personally made collection of wolf-themed gifts is for you. And for us. Because we may or may not have ordered multiple things on this list already. Of course, just so you know, 'I Can Has Cheezburger' earns an affiliate commission on qualifying purchases from the products we link to.

Now, if wolves aren't your thing, we have some fox-themed gifts for all the foxiest fox lovers in the crowd and some completely unnecessary but hilarious cat knick knacks for cat lovers. 

Wolves are dangerous, yes, we know. But we're animal lovers, so we know better than to fall for the stereotype of the big bad wolf. Wolves may be dangerous, but so are adorable big wild cats, and we think they're cute too. Amazingly, the big bad wolf is incredibly affectionate, and in general, wolves are the biggest goofballs ever. 

Wolves are basically overgrown doggos, so it totally makes sense that we love them so much. We can only hope to one day meet a wolf friendly enough who will actually give us permission to pet its belly. That would be a total dream come true. 

You know how you're in love with dogs? And by extent, any dog-looking this is also something that you want to pet? Yeah, we love wolves too, but... how big and dangerous are wolves actually? Because as far as we see, wolves are super affectionate, and they're the biggest goofballs, and yes, to us, they are basically dogs. 

Well, tumblr is about to give you a reality check by showing you just how big wolves are... But if you're anything like us, them being totally dangerous, enormous, and not always dog-like in behavior is... not going to stop you even slightly from wanting to cuddle them.

Not only are wolves adorable, fluffy goofballs who are basically just overgrown doggos, they are also incredibly loving, friendly, and more important than any of us probably realize. Wolf Conservation Center, or @nywolforg on twitter, do their very best to educate everyone on the importance of these giant goofballs, bringing us pictures and videos to fawn over every single day. 

For all their hard work and all the love they show their adorable wolves, we decided to give some love back and help them spread the word to more animal lovers. So, we picked some of our favorite wolfish pics and videos and collected them here for you. Go give these wolves some love and support, friends!

Wolves are cute. That's just fact. Dogs are also cute. Another fact. But did you know that wolves are basically just silly overgrown large doggos? I bet you didn't. Well, these pictures are here as proof. 

Large dangerous predators, hahahe, who are you kidding? Wolves are the bestest doggos of all. Fluffy, huge, and incredibly affectionate, they are so cute all we wanna do is cuddle them to sleep. We can only imagine how soft and floofy they are. And it would be an honor to be taken into their packs. We'd do our best to keep up with them, and we'd make sure to be the pack's best member at cuddling. 

After reading this adorable list of things real wolves tend to do, you'll want to meet a real wolf too. Tumblr user thewugtest has informed the interwebs of what it is like to hang out with a real wolf and it sounds absolutely delightful. 

Sure, some of it seems a bit too much (don't worry, you'll know what part seems too much after reading the thread), but overall, who in the world wouldn't want to experience such a moment? Not only do wolves seem cool but they really seem to live up to that expectation. 

Big ol' giant woofers with big ol' hearts! 

Wolves may normally be depicted as scary, snarling, evil creatures - the big bad wolves, right? - but they're also known as some of the most affectionate, cutest animals out there. They're always running in packs, they howl if they're separated from their pack, sometimes as a signal, sometimes just to show some love, and some of them even mate for life. 

These terrifying creatures really know how to love each other, and the do it in the sweetest ways possible, nuzzling each other, randomly placing their heads on each other. A little like doggies. They even wag their tails when they're happy. And since these wolves are happy and in love, and we love them, we've decided to let some of this love envelop us in these stressful days, since we all need a little wholesome love right about now. 

OK, we know this comic is a little on the long side but trust us -- it's worth the read. 

The artist, Weibo, has released the absolute sweetest papa wolf comic! The wolf, is the alpha dog, who happens to discover a small defenseless pup who wouldn't survive on his own. So naturally, the wolf cares for the little guy as he would his own! But that sort of thing doesn't happen so quickly. This is a journey of a comic so sit back and enjoy the ride. 

And just in case you need even more adorable wolf comics to smile at!

Wholesome and relatable customer service comics. Except, if you were a wolf.

Customer Service Wolf, a series on Tumblr, that follows a wolf who works as a bookseller. Just the regular daily struggles any of those working in customer service would relate to... but with animals instead of people. 

Which is already immensely better than real-life customer service -- wouldn't you say?

Currently, Scientists at the Centre for Paleogenetics, in Stockholm, Sweden, are currently doing DNA-analysis to find out whether it is a wolf, a dog, or possibly a common ancestor.

But one thing they do know for sure is that it was a very good boy.
