A Russian man decided to adopt a puppy that appeared to be an adorable little dog, but as it grew up he realized the real animal he was taming.

Andrey Musienko is a youtuber who adopted a wolf puppy thinking it was a dog, but now his little one turned into a giant wolf and he didn’t hesitate to show it off on social media.

Man interacts with the biggest wolf on the planet and treats him like a little puppy.

Through his YouTube channel he showed the big animal who was quickly labeled as one of the largest specimens in the world.

The wolf is a mammal that has existed for thousands of years on our planet, they have always been able to adapt to any environment in order to inhabit it. Because of this and for all the different areas and ecosystems that are housed on our planet there are different breeds of wolves both in size and appearance.

Since time immemorial, wolves have been considered ancestral companions and, in some cases, man’s domestic “dogs”.

And this is one of their main characteristics: they are large animals that stalk and hunt in packs in cold forests, such as in North America, Siberia and Northern Europe.

However, this has never been a limitation for Andrey, who has always been receptive to seeing what he considers his pet grow and interact with.

They can live from 6 to 12 years depending on whether they live in unified herds in specific territories or on their own.

The man has such a real and sincere bond with the wolf that he not only gave him a name, they perform activities typical of what a pet owner does with their furry friend, playfully interacting with their owner is the most distinctive. Something that Andrey and Akela, his giant wolf, do quite often.

In the presence of the magnificent animal, anyone would think of running away, but for Andrey things work very differently, he stays and plays with his mischievous pet.

It is an animal that feeds exclusively on meat, which makes it a predatory carnivore at all times.

Akela sniffs and nibbles at his master, he also tries to pull him by his hoodie for the man ends up scolding him. Seeing them interacting so genuinely, we can think of it as a little puppy in the body of a giant wolf.

Many will think it’s a very risky thing to do, but for this pair it’s a rough game in which both parties seem to be having fun.

This man is a great lover of little animals, through his Instagram account he shares some photos and videos not only of Akela but of other furry ones that he cares for and loves unconditionally.

In his account we can see some photos of Akela when he was a common puppy, compared to now, who is an imposing and playful wolf.

In hopes of improving the enclosure where Akela makes a life, Andrey Musienko started a fundraiser through his YouTube channel called Black Canadian Wofl, where he has over 462 subscribers.

On the fundraising page he commented:

“Many of you are asking to make a big aviary for Akela like in a zoo, and that’s why we did a charity fundraiser for a project close to natural conditions.”

Many people admired his bravery, others showed their astonishment, even tried to warn him because although it seems that they are playing, he is still in front of a wild animal.
