Is it normal to be obsessed with wolves?

I am in love, obsessed with wolves. I want to be one, hunt, live with them. I think about them all the time. I dream about being one and living with them. No I don't mean fictional Twilight wolves. Real live forest wolves. I've never seen a real one and it kills me! I have posters of wolves, all my stuffed animals are wolves...I have wolf everything! My screennames, usernames, every name is wolfie or something like that. My screensavers for my phone, computer, Ipod are all of wolves. I want to change my last name to Wolfe. I went searching forever to find a wolf charm! I beg my parents to let me see a wolf, or have a dog with some wolf in it. Is it crazy to love wolves this much?

    Wolves are awesome!

    Also about the dog, get a Malamute. there about a close as you can get to a actual wolf, except they are less aggressive than wolves.

    You could probably find a dog that was actually part wolf, but Wolf Hybrids (any dog that's part wolf) are pretty aggressive and difficult to train, so unless you really knew what you were doing, go with the Alaskan Malamute.

      Or the OP could get a husky. They're pretty wolf-like.

    You can actually adopt a wolf I am in love with wolves to. In Kelowna bc Canada there is a shelter. I live near it look it up. Though I must say wolves are like 2000 dollars.

    Wolves are wicked! Totally normal, go check out some wolves at the zoo. I've seen a pack one day in the mountains, but as majestic as they are i'd rather not meet them in the wild that often.

    When I was 11 I had a similar fascination with wolves, especially after reading Call of The Wild and White Fang. I grew out of it though. I still think they're cool but I don't fantasise about leading a pack around snowy Alaska hunting deer and being mates with them anymore...

    ...I do want a wolf/husky type dog when I'm older though.

    I used to have a wolf obsession when I was in elementary school. I made all my art projects in school have to do with wolves, pretended to be a wolf with my friends, and brought up wolf-related facts in conversations. It all started when I became obsessed with the animated movie Balto at the age of 5, and my obsession grew to include wolves in general. I also liked the books Kavik the Wolfdog and Call of the Wild.

    I read a book once called "Julie of the Wolves." It was a good book.

    I love wolves, but I'm also scared of them.

    They're cute in some things, but in others I'm reminded that they are predators.

    When, I was a kid I went through a period where I was convinced that I was a "werewolf".

    This had ABSOLUTELY Nothing to do with that godawful Twilight.

    That disney film "Brother Bear" had this test where you find your "spirit animal" and after a few tries I finally got the wolf. I need to take a legit test.

    Why don't you look up sprit animals/spirt guides. Totem animals, it's all tied.

        the problem is all of those "save the wolves!" paraphernalia they've turned wolves into cute cuddly creatures and the fans of wolves often scoff at realistic issues an overabundance of wolves can create.

        the common wolf is no longer an endangered species and in some areas it's again legal to hunt them, simply because they have too fucking many of them, to the point where other animals are starting to suffer from being hunted by wolves.
