RE: Nocturnal encounters: Aardwolves of the Kalahari
Actually lots of people do keep wolves as pets, but they don't make particularly good ones as they never lose certain 'wolffish' behaviors such as marking indoors. Usually when they get larger, their behavior gets mistaken for aggression and suddenly people don't want them any longer.
That said, I have worked around them before and they are very dog-like for the most part and I haven't found them to be aggressive at all.
But for the most part, regardless of whether something can be 'tamed' I think the more important question is always: should we?
if we wanna be like the stark family in game of thrones then hell yes :P
I am joking i am joking in general i think wild life should be protected and we must educate people both for it and the benefits in doing so!
Yup, the best conservation efforts always focus on engaging the local community as well - if people see value in conservation for themselves it has a much greater chance at success
