History PapaWolf / RealLIfe

* Israeli politician and current Minister of Foreign Affairs Avigdor Lieberman once clobbered a kid who was bullying his son, and threatened to do it again if he did it again. He wound up apologising and paying compensation.

* BruceLee was known for taking challenges from aspiring martial artists. During the making of ''EnterTheDragon'', a TooDumbToLive challenger snuck into their home and scared his two children, Brandon and Shannon. An enraged Lee put the idiot in the hospital with ''one kick.''

* In 1871, seven-year-old Mary Winchester was kidnapped by Burmese tribesmen. At this, the Lieutenant Governor of India sent [[NepaliWithNastyKnives guess who]] after them and [[GunboatDiplomacy persuaded]] them to release Mary in about three months. QueenVicky [[MamaBear considers]] hurting her subjects to be SeriousBusiness.

* A chicago father held off the wouldbe kidnapper of his two year old daughter. [[http://news.yahoo.com/chicago-man-saves-daughter-abduction-attempt-211411557--abc-news-topstories.html Here.]]

** He was frequently noted to have treated his students like his own children, making his HeroicSacrifice and PapaWolf reactions all the more heartbreaking. Unarmed and faced with a [[CompleteMonster cold-blooded killer]], Librescu did the only thing he could to protect his students and used himself to barricade the door.

** AlecBaldwin once punched out a paparazzo for taking a picture of his infant daughter Ireland. [[AbusiveParents Too bad he didn't stay that way...]]

* [[http://tumblr.thedailywh.at/post/21716152875/kickass-dad-of-the-day-when-stuart-chaifetz Stuart Chaifetz]] is worried because his autistic child behaves oddly in school. He puts a recorder in the kids's clothes and finds out [[TheWoobie he's]] [[KickTheDog horribly bullied and abused by the staff.]] He's now on a crusade to protect all kids in such a terrible situation.

* Wolves mate for life, and a male wolf will fight even to the death to protect his mate and offspring (in the last case, often in a tag team with Mama Wolf). He is also involved with raising the pups, taking charge of the youngsters, and teaching them how to hunt. ([[CaptainObvious Hence, trope title]].) Swans also mate for life - they might look serene and peaceful and cute, but just ''try'' to touch a cygnet when Papa Swan is nearby. [[SchmuckBait I dare you.]] (...Did we mention that the wingbeats of a mute swan can break a human arm?).As an aside, all the mammal examples are the exception, as, in contrast to most birds,most RealLife mammalian males, bears and monkeys in particular, are more likely to kill and eat their offspring than anything else (polar bear males even make it a lifestyle), usually causing their mates to go Mama Bear on ''them''.

* YoshiyukiTomino is said to have given [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech a SEVERE verbal/written lashing]] to some racist assholes who tried to shame the lady who played Loran in TurnAGundam, RomiPark, due to her Korean ancestry.

* A very dark example (crosdsing with KnightTemplarParent) is [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitaly_Kaloyev Vitaly Kaloyev]]. He was a grieving father whose wife (Svetlana) and children (Konstantin and Diana) died in [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bashkirian_Airlines_Flight_2937 an horrible plane crash in Switzerland]], apparently caused by a "negligent" travel operator who was absolved by the law system. (See below for details) The mentally broken Kaloyev reacted via... searching for said operator with help of a private detective, and [[KnifeNut stabbing]] [[VigilanteExecution the one he blamed for everything to death]] two years later.
** [[hottip:Though there are other details...: In regards to the above troper's entry about Vitaly Kaloyev, I would like to point out that what happened wasn't really the travel operator's, Peter Nielsen's fault but rather the fault of the company he worked for, Skyline. He was the only operator for that section of the sky that night, his fellow travel operator having taken a very long break, leaving him in charge of two work stations where the monitoring screens were relatively far part so he kept having to move in between them to monitor them. Maintenance of the phone systems and a ton of other stuff was going on at the company that night, disabling a lot of his resources, and he had a ton of other flights that were going on that needed his attention at the same time so he was very distracted. In particular, an Airbus was having problems and consuming a lot of his attention so he didn't notice that the two planes were getting too close. Also the main phone lines were down due to the maintenance and the backup system malfunctioned so other control areas that had noticed the problem couldn't contact him in time to report the two planes were heading toward each other. And an important instrument that would have warned him that the two planes were getting too close had been shut off for maintenance as well. And the other control areas that had noticed the problem couldn't warn the two planes because they didn't have contact with them. So he was basically having to handle ALL of the flights over his area which covered Switzerland by himself with several problems coming to him at once and with a lot of his resources cut off from him. And Peter Nielsen didn't get off easy after he was absolved by the courts. [[MyGreatestFailure He had to live with the guilt of not having noticed the danger and needed medical attention for the trauma he suffered from the incident]]. It is still a Papa Bear reaction by Kaloyev that I really don't blame him for especially considering that [[TearJerker he found the body of his little girl, Diana.]] But the ones he really should have been mad at were the people in charge of Skyline who thought [[WhatWereYouThinking that it was perfectly all right]] [[WhatAnIdiot to let one person handle an area that encompasses a country with a ton of flights going through it while leaving them bereft of a lot of their equipment that is supposed to help them and their communications with other traffic control centers.]] Here's where I got the info from: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7IJyP4h2EE (WARNING: This video will make you CRY)]].]]

** Male lions are protective of their own cubs. Other males' cubs, however, are fair game. (Though this is the case with almost every animal, and lionesses will also kill foreign cubs if given the chance.)
