User blog:TechSaur/My Opinion on Wolves

'''I did add a swear. Sorry.'''

I wanted to get this out because I'm aggravated at the moment with all the crazy wolfaboos on dA. I don't mean to offend anyone. If you are offended, don't scream and go ape crazy about it. I would dearly appreciate it if you respected my opinion. This may sound like a rant. Some of these are FACTS, not opinion. You are warned.

First off, people say that wolves construct their life and that they live because of wolves. I must say all of those people are wrong. Wolves do nothing to help us. Well, they MAY help control the prey balance, but that's what all wild animals do. A wolf is highly aggressive and will attack strangers. This is a fact.

Wolves do not have beautiful, majestic, gorgeous or rare fur. Their fur is just like any other mammal's fur. Wolf fur can be infested with fleas and have ticks in it, depending on where they live. Its fur has no helpful specialties except you can use it for a piece of clothing, like a jacket that will keep you warm.

These wild canines are NOT friendly. Tons of people claim to work with wolves, but 99 percent of them are lying. My estimate is that only one in a million dA users has worked with wolves. Some users say that they can put their hand in a wolf's MOUTH and feel safe. This relates to the second paragraph.

This annoys me the most. When a wolf kills something, everyone congratulates the wolf and cheers for it. "GOOD JOB WOLF" "GRRR GO WOLVES YAY" "WOLVES R DA BEST HUNTERS!!!" When a bear kicks the wolf's ass, everyone goes crazy and rages. "OMG someone should've killed dat bare" "that bear needs 2 die!" "poor wolf.. BEARS SUCK!!!!!!!!" When a human kills a wolf, everyone shouts that wolf hunting is bad. We have to control our population. If there are too many wolves, prey will decrease, and wolves will starve, along with other predators. We humans also have to kill predators.

Following the paragraph above, most go nuts over a picture of an animal killing or fighting a wolf, winning in a landslide. They scream "ANIMAL ABOESS!!!!!" It is not animal abuse. It's just a picture of reality.

Wolf OCs. I see a lot of them when I browse dA. I will describe the average so-called "realistic" wolf OC:

Huge ears, gigantic tails, wide, large eyes, abnormal markings, neon/rainbow colors/bright colors, unnatural eye colors, no claws, big paws, "special features," powers, abilities, crazy accessories that wouldn't fit on a real wolf, skinny necks and too much fur. coughs

Okay, so I may have exaggerated. It's fine if you have REASONABLE MARKINGS, but if your wolf OC has leopard spots, rainbow stripes, long hair, wings, MAKEUP, a rainbow tail or anything else like that, you have some sort of mental problem and you need therapy. If you say it's realistic, someone needs to put you in a mental hospital. That wasn't supposed to offend anyone.

Well, if you have a dark blue wolf OC with white paws and a black stripe running down its back, it's reasonable. If it's an anthro, it's fine as well. But a "realistic" sparkledog? No.

clears throat If you've made it this far, you deserve a cookie. Please comment on what you think. If you disagree with me, please stay calm about it. Don't rage at me... It only makes me angrier, and I'm an angry person in general. But thanks for reading.
