If being a 'wolfaboo' means that you believe that wolves, as well as other endangered species, are an integral part of the ecosystem of the world we live in...Then yes...I suppose I am a 'wolfaboo'...I find that link to be one of the very lowest of the dregs in offensive ignorance...

Hey man. Nice to see another portuguese here, AND trying to sensibilize other people to that cause. It is really a unique species in our fauna...

And talking now about the game, I loved to hear that bit about the wolves' den, sounds really awesome! I here am hoping they will be atracted by corpses, as in, we could drag a deer corpse to the entry of the den and they would come out to check out. That would be one beautiful AI moment.

If they do that with every different creature, crafting a unique AI and/or schedule, it is a big advance regarding Oblivion...

Okay, so in Oblivion, every time you encounter a wolf, it tries to kill you. It's either kill or be killed, so you have no choice but to kill the wolves, unless you just want to make a wild run for your life.... :bolt:

But is there no justice for the wolves? They have been vilified by humans for centuries, but in reality, wolves only attack humans if they are starving or if they feel threatened. So, unless every wolf in Tamriel is going hungry, couldn't some of them just ignore you, if you ignore them? I know it probably won't happen, but it would be nice to see, because I always feel a tremendous amount of guilt for having to kill them. :(

What I would really love to see would be the possibility of having a wolf as a pet. Dogs are cool, but wolves are even better. And humans have been able to tame wolves from time to time, so why not make it somehow possible to do so in the game, if you so choose? Personally, I would love to see that option somehow implemented in Skyrim.

Of course, if you still want to go out and mindlessly slaughter every innocent wolf you see, no one is taking that away from you.... :flame:

So, I'm sure I'll get jumped on by a lot of people who don't feel the same, or think it's stupid...but tell me what you think?

I agree, Same for cougars and black bears etc. Here is a trick. If you see them, and you have the spell skill, go invisible, charm them, give them a pat on the head, and walk away none the worse for the wear,. I have done it often.

Have you ever heard the story of lobo the wolf?
A true story I found out about playing Red Dead Redemption, because they have a wolf in that game named Lobo you have to hunt in the master hunter's challenge.
