Sorry if i'm a bit thick.............are you actually allowed to have a wolf as a pet?
We're not walking wolf hybrids are we.....? But actual wolfs?!

no, its illegal

so are wolf hybrids, you need a wild animals licence

And is it easy to get said wild animal licence?
(No, I'm not thinking of getting one lol)

The answer to the first question is no, a wolf is a wild animal & should be living in a natural habitat. The wolves today are not the same as those that evolved into dogs thousands of years ago. They have natural behaviours that are bred into them that makes them very unsuitable as pet dogs.

Taming even a feral puppy dog is not the same as having a pet dog, even if the puppy or cub is in human company from an early age. Wolf cubs mature much faster than domestic dogs & as the Wolf is naturally quite a "shy"animal(they rarely set out to fight/attack other wolves/predators)as this is a waste of energy which could be used hunting for food.

I say no as it is still a wild animal. Dingoes here you need a licence for them, I have worked with a few Dingoes they are not the same as a domesticated dog. I wonder if all dogs had never be domesticated who we all still answered the same, by the way I want an elephant

As someone else mentioned, having a wild animal as a "pet" is a childish fantasy. I did it too - and wanted a wolf or a fox when I was a child - although I wasn't allowed a dog, so having my own GSD was my biggest and most long-lived fantasy

Wolves are wild creatures and should not, ever be kept as pets imo. I don't agree with keeping any wild animal or bird as a pet!

a Ive seen a few in collections here, but they are usually asleep of hiding in long grass!!

Oh Becky those pictures are gorgeous, lovely cats!

Not a mistake I've ever made I'll stick with my rats Wolves leave me cold I'm more a big cat person but would never have one as a pet
