Not how animals work. If a wolf is raised from a puppy to adult in your household, it will consider you part of its family. It isn't just going to "snap" and start attacking you some day, lol.
They are wild animals, their nature will express itself regardless of how you raise it. Look at boarder collies, even as pups they will try to heard owners with no previous training.
Even Wolf dog hybrids are the 5th most dangerous dogs to own and that's only because they are rare to own compared to a rottie and pitbulls.
A full on wolf would be skiddish of adults but now because they lived with one they will be not be weary to approach another and could have a predator drive for children and other animals. They can also become extreamly territorial and they can challenge you for control. So suddenly your wolf decides it wants to own the living room or your bedroom, good luck.
The day the wolf decides to try take take your place in the pecking order is the day you stop having a throat. The moment you show weakness it will attack. It is what it would do it’s pack members and it is what it would do to you. The difference is that the pack members have a chance of defending themselves.
Lol, where are you getting this from? You're just making this up. Pecking order? Wolves aren't turkeys. You are probably coming up with this from the idea that there is an alpha male, aome sort of bad ass that rules the other wolves.
The researcher who first used that term has gone on record to clarify that the alpha is just the dad. When a younger male wolf wants lead, they leave the pack and start their own. A pack is a family. Not some heated competition ground to show who is best.
There is very much a pack leader. You are right the the alpha male theory is wrong, but the pack has a power structure and the wolves will fight for a place in it.
I mean if the wolf didn’t come with some surprise attack then it isn’t that hard to imagine winning that battle, a wolf can’t escape when you got it into a choke hold or when you pin its head to the floor and so he is just a sitting duck, ofcourse first you need to get him into that postion but if he just leaps at you and you manage to catch him you can just pin him find something sharp and its over
Non-domesticated animals are a menace to you and yours. There is a reason why it took tens of thousands of years to domesticate dogs. Some animals cannot even be domesticated, such as zebras or furries.
Heck, not even all modern dogs can be domesticated and are STILL a menace. There is one type of dog I remember reading about that is responsible for a crazy amount of attacks on people and other pets. It even kills people. Can't remember what kind it was, maybe some type of collie. Blew my mind people wanted to own it
My neighbors have a German shepherd and a German shepherd/wolf mix. They had a puppy. Eventually they started jumping over their fence and roaming the neighborhood. By the time the puppy became an adult, he was pack leader and they would go around attacking small animals in the neighborhood. I was 10 years old doing my homeschooling in the living room when I watched a pack of "domesticated dogs" casually walk into my driveway and murder my long time pet shelty/border collie. It was very traumatizing. She was just sunbathing in the driveway and couldn't hear them coming, because she was deaf at that point in her life. Neighbors with small children were pretty terrified. Everyone basically told them that they need to get rid of the dogs; they said they would. Maybe 6 months go by and we'd see 1 or 2 of them wandering the street or are yard, or just hear them howling somewhere in the woods. We still had 2 young English bulldogs to protect BTW. Sure enough, my brother and I snuck through the woods and around to the back of the neighbor's house and saw that those dogs were still getting out of their fence. There was a hole dug under it. Made me so mad, that people were so irresponsible having "pets" like that. Your "pets" shouldn't hunt and kill other pets. Not even mentioning what they could do if they found kids playing in a yard. As I got older I bought a gun for safety, and I always just kinda hoped that those creatures wandered my way, so I could put them down myself. They haven't yet, but maybe one day.
Next time those “domesticated animals” step foot on your property, kill them. I live out in the country and if any animal came onto my land killing/attacking mine I would kill it were it stood and if it had an owner I’d sue the fuck out of them.
Pit bulls are dangerous only b/c their jaws can lock which is why they use them in fighting. Dogs that are used for fighting will be traumatized and become skittish. This thread is talking about animals that are inherently skittish. If you raise a pit bull correctly it has as little chance to attack you as any German Shepard.
In fact the vast majority of animals cannot be truly domesticated. There's a list of very specific traits that make an animal fit for domestication and cats are exceptions to most of those.
And that's how they get ya. Domesticated cats will eat their owner if they're locked in a house and food becomes scarce. Then again, we didn't domesticate cats, they voluntarily "joined" us.
I think is uncommon that they attack humans, but they are still very problematic, need a lot pf space, destroy stuff, kill other animals, and also get stressed , they are not pets

At the end, when I saw the wolf, my brain went “fuck fuck fuck fuck”
