Feeding the rescued Maned Wolves (Chrysocyon brachyurus)
Not a pet!
This animal was rescued when he was just an orphaned pup, and became very accustomed to people; in fact, as you can see in the video, it loves the company of people... unfortunately, that means it can never be released back into the wild.
If an animal in such a situation were to be released, there are a few possible outcomes, and none of them are good... an animal in these conditions does not know how to find food on its own, and it's used to humans being the ones who provide food, so if released such animal would seek people and...
1) It would get killed by someone who would see it as a threat, even though Maned Wolves pose NO threat to humans if left alone;
2) It would get caught by someone who would want it as a pet and it would spend the rest of its life in a house;
3) It would live as a stray dog, eating garbage and/or getting fed by people who would not feed it properly, getting (and possibly spreading) diseases, and/or possibly getting attacked by a dog or hit by a car;
4) It would stay away from people but die from starvation or some disease (either from not eating properly, as it doesn't know how to get food, or from being in contact with animals who are immune to such things - and possibly infecting wildlife with something that it brought from life in captivity, but the animal itself is used to.
So yeah... things aren't as simple as you all think... it's a real shame that this animal has to spend the rest of his life in captivity, but unfortunately, it's his reality. At least he has a decent space to live in and is well-cared for.
