3A very short webcomic, ''[[http://droemar.deviantart.com/gallery/756066#/d423rds Canis]]'' deconstructs some of the amateur comics on Website/{{DeviantART}} and romanticism of wolves in general.
4----
5!!This webcomic provides examples of:
6* ArmorPiercingQuestion: "Freedom from what?"
7* ArtisticLicenseBiology: While the comic deconstructs tropes for realism, it still isn't as realistic on the zoology department. The comic shows the rottweilers all killing the pack of wolves, each with a single bite. A wolf can exert up to 1500 psi (bite strength) vs 250 to 325 of dogs like rottweilers and pit bulls and can bite through a moose femur in a few tries. The comic's rotties very easily kill a pack of animals who survive by having to take down elk and bison to eat instead from a bowl. Also, the wolf pack itself falls into the [[GreekLetterRanks outdated alpha-beta-omega wolf hierarchy]].
8%%* BigNo:
9* TheChosenOne: Moonstar is prophesied to save his pack. [[spoiler:Subverted, it's complete hogwash.]]
10** Possibly played straight. [[spoiler:The foolish were culled, and the smart wolves passed their genes on to the remnants to make a better pack with a higher chance of survival.]]
11* {{Deconstruction}}: Mainly of wolves in fiction.
12* DeliberatelyMonochrome: The entire comic is in black and white.
13%%* DyingAlone: [[spoiler:Moonstar.]]
14%%* LoyalAnimalCompanion / UndyingLoyalty: The dogs to man.
15* TheRant: The comic creator enjoys ripping into anthro
16* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Those that choose to flee live because of it.
17* StylisticSuck: The names of the characters are supposed to be bad.
18%%* TalkingAnimal
19%%* TragicHero: [[spoiler:Moonstar.]]
20* WouldHurtAChild: Moonstar and his pack, like real predators, have no qualms about killing helpless baby animals.
21%%* {{Xenofiction}}
