if i knew for sure that it wouldn't attack me, then yes i would! though the chances of that happening are very slim, and i actually like keeping my body parts intact, soooo

Nope id rather snap photos with a great camera from afar as if rather respect the wolf than make it feel uncomfortable or for fear of the poor thing getting habituated to humans. That would equal the death of the wolf

I wouldn't dare hug a wolf... However I would let it or interact nicely, not too rough or it might stimulate the prey drive. I would let it approach and sniff me, let it decide.
Taking your time when you can is key to a healthy lifestyle. You may have a set lifespan, but you don't have to rush yourself every second of it.

Agreed with Snow. I'd just let a wolf interact and sniff my hand or whatsoever to give them my trustworthy scent. Pretty much doing this with every animal that knows human, even your average dog. If a wolf is this crazy to sorta jump upon me in a playful way or just wag its tail or lick my hand, you name it; I probably couldn't resist hugging it anyway. Just because it approaches me which should always happen. Don't approach a wolf or just a dog by yourself, let it come to you. If it doesn't growl at all and appears curious. Also watch the tail.

If really wild and approaching with a pack, that's another story. Most of the time I'll just take pictures and let them roam around. Because yes, they are still dangerous after all. I will not be afraid of a big bite, but even the tiniest snap can cause a deep scratch.

Considering I have hugged a wolf before, I wouldn't mind doing it again. During my brief "hug" however, I was told not to restrain the wolf too much with my arms, as it is an uncomfortable way of greeting for the wolf usually. I would give the wolf a "side-hug" or a "one-armed hug."

I would, as long as I knew it wouldn't bite my face off.

I remember a few years ago when we went to a wolf sanctuary and my sister and I were allowed to go for a wolf interaction...
So yes, I would, and have already. :D

Yes, but only if the wolf is comfortable with it

No, wolves are wild animals and they might be dirty or something and i don't want to get killed or get something ripped off, it will be too much of a pain.
