 Wolves have been an important animal in fantasies and pop culture for a while now. And why wouldn't it be? With a tall speed of 60 km per hour and a jawline that can exert a pressure of 320 psi, this is an impressive animal. Considering the reputation that this animal has, you might imagine that it would serve as a great guard dog. However, if this is what you thought, then you might be very very wrong. A lesser known fact about wolves is that they are usually very terrified of things they do not understand. Even in the wild, they live in packs and they prey on hoofed animals by relying on numbers. In other words, if they are guarding an area and they hear something they do not understand, their first tendency will be to run away. A wolf would not even bark at the intruder because it would be too busy running away. So they are perhaps not as fierce as the shows might make you believe.
