Suggestion to Mojang: Snowy wolves should be able to walk on powdered snow. This would prevent them from dying to it and would be a cool little feature in general.

Hear me out Last update: Trails and Tales This update: Trials and Tails

They should've given the snowy wolves those bright blue husky eyes

What a pleasant surprise. And yes, there are some jungle wolves in real life.

The Indian wolf subspecies is the most famous example of wolves in jungles, but the variant placed rhwre in-game seems inspired by a seperate animal known as the dhole which is a bright orange and found in southeast Asian jungles (although jt is unfortunately endangered with only 2000 individuals in that entire range)

I love the African painted dogs and hyena inspired wolves!!

The achievement should be named: ''The pack survives''.

Finally my wolf armys are gonna look a bit less bland!

The Achievement is likely going be like like "Leader of the Pack" or something. Also people have started calling African Wild Dogs to African Painted Dogs for the Wild gave reason for hunters to hunt them for people considered Wild Dogs to be dangerous. They changed the names to African Painted Dogs for they were starting to go endangered from hunters.

Living sheep are gonna be so much more difficult to find now. XD

Wish there were a Coyote variant. It would certainly be fun for the desert.

Did you know striped hyenas were once tamed in Egypt to help hunt food. They stop taming them later. Striped hyenas can actually be "tamable" if raised at birth. Even though they are not wolves or canids, they can be very dog-like and also are my favorite animals so I am SO thrilled about this update.

I don’t know how many people have noticed, but these aren’t even 1.21 snapshots! We have been on 1.20.5 snapshots this entire time, and the trial chamber stuff has been locked behind an experimental toggle/data pack. That said, the armadillo and wolf stuff have not. They are actually coming in the minor update.

I remember watching CaptainSparklez's video covering the introduction of wolves into Minecraft all those years ago. Now here we are, all this time later...

Imagine. Bringing a wolf army to a battlefield is so OP. Techno would've been proud.

All commands to summon each wolf: /summon minecraft:wolf ~ ~ ~ {variant:woods} /summon minecraft:wolf ~ ~ ~ {variant:ashen} /summon minecraft:wolf ~ ~ ~ {variant:black} /summon minecraft:wolf ~ ~ ~ {variant:chestnut} /summon minecraft:wolf ~ ~ ~ {variant:rusty} /summon minecraft:wolf ~ ~ ~ {variant:spotted} /summon minecraft:wolf ~ ~ ~ {variant:striped} /summon minecraft:wolf ~ ~ ~ {variant:snowy}

Since I am from Brazil, this jungle variant of the wolf must be based on the maned wolf which as far I know lives in the biome area of the region where we call it “cerrado”; and my state I don’t live near it.

According to Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Book stories, wolves do exist in the jungle. Mowgli's foster family being one example.

this is something that was missing for so long, for no reason. i remember the first ever texturepack i made (8 years ago) was adding my brown dog into minecraft. now i'll never have to do that and can have all of my dogs in minecraft at the same time in vanilla.

This is actually shaping up to be a pretty cool update, what with the new wolf features, the trial chambers, and the auto-crafter. I'm looking forward to the full release!

They should make horses relevant again by letting us equip them with horse shoes enchanted with soul speed. Max speed horse + soul speed horse shoes = time travel. Also frost walker so they can run across water

They’re actually coming in 1.20.5, along with wolf armor and armadillo

Awesome to see African wild dogs added to Minecraft,. also know as the painted wolves, they are neither dogs nor wolves but a unique genius of the canine family that are endangered.

I voted for the armadillo. I won't say "I told you so"... what I will say is, "I wanted a pup army, I voted for a pup army, and now I have a pup army" 😁

About the only wolf family member I know of that can sometimes be found in jungles/rainforests is the Maned Wolf. You won't see them often though. There's only been about maybe 20 some sightings so far.

just want we needed, MORE WOLF SKINS, now i can tell salt and pepper apart other then just their collars (i wonder if we get to vote for a special doggo like jelly) do hope so, and they have a change to be found in villages lol

wouldn’t be surprised if they make the advancement along the lines of “the wolf pack”

Dog update is coolest

Better Wild Update than the entirety of the actual Wild Update

gonna catch em all

They missed the chance to add Dingos into deserts! It would've been so cool if they had a werewolf too, it could look like a normal wolf but with permanent red eyes during the day and then transform at night and become hostile to everything including you even if tamed until sunrise. And maybe you could cure its hostility like how you cure zombie villagers with potions so that the werewolf has self-control again and wont attack everything impulsively anymore when in that form? Maybe for halloween

The Indian Wolf is a subspecies of grey wolf that lives in Southwest Asia. Its fur ranges from grey to tan. These are the wolves that adopt Mowgli in The Jungle Book

2:40 my goofy self searched “Do wolves spawn in jungles irl?”

MY GOD! FINALLY!!! We've been waiting for these for years and finally they have been confirmed 😭 These textures are GORGEOUS ♡

It's about darn time too. This could have, and should have been in main Minecraft. I won't fuss too much though because I'm happy it's here now. ^^ It would be nice if they made some special caves/dens for you to come across to find some resting in. And give them the sleeping animation like the Foxes. :D

we’re all furries secretly

this is kinda cool! feels like getting a wolf will be a lot easier with them spawning in more biomes like this too. of course, collecting them all will be a huge task now still XD

Oh my good, I can’t believe they actually did it!!! I’ve been wanting this for years

Mojang has recently been going down an interesting direction. Adding more variants of different things and making things more biome dependent adds to the replayability of the game. This new change with wolves, among many other changes, allows different biome spawns to determine more of what happens in the world. For instance, everyone has their favourite set of armour trims, but when you find a random one and can dupe it most people opt to put it on even though it isn't the specific one they want. My point here is that survival Minecraft has become very similar over the years; you hop into a world, and eventually get maxed out gear, and build your ideal house/villager hall and other farms. Adding more variety to biomes in this way helps people play differently, even if it is as small as having a different coloured wolf to what they would usually have. Hopefully they continue with this trend, maybe even adding more variety (based on biome) in terms of late game items 🤔

The rusty wolfs remind me of my old dog Luna so I’ll definitely be looking for those ones specifically

5:13 That tree back there be vibin in the sky for no reason

Rusty Wolf was based on the Dhole, a canid native to Central, South, East, and Southeast Asia.

I think the striped variant could also be based on an animal related to the hyena known as the aardwolf. I really hope that's the joke.

I'm so glad we finally got more wolves since cats got an update first. I wonder what other variations of animals they do next? Cows, sheeps, pigs, chickens?

I've been waiting for this moment for YEARS!

I’ve been waiting a decade for this!

They should totally add a skeleton wolf variant to abandoned villages, take a guess why. :)

i dont think Amarillos and their dog armour made them do this but sped it up, its been long overdue. im glad they did this now tho, it adds something else to that mob vote even tho its not directly related

ITS ABOUT FREAKING TIME oh my god we've only been asking for this for like a decade

Wolves in jungles? No. A similar looking wild canine species to the Minecraft jungle variant? Yes.

You do such an amazing job going over everything! I hope you continue to release update videos on minecraft!

Wolf features + the armadillo are actually for 1.20.5! So theres no way they'd be going into the 1.21 bugfixing phase yet

It's about time. Been waiting for the wolf to get the ocelot treatment. 🙌

I don't think there will be too much bug fixing because it is literaly just a retextured wolf, maybe for the textures or armadillo armor but not too many bugs overall

Good luck finding sheep in these biomes now 😅

Can’t want it for the “ I breed 100 snowy wolfs in the new update” videos

Missed opportunity for a "Nether Hound"

You may want to adjust the title, there are 8 new wolves, unless I miscounted.

you can spawn wolf types with spawn eggs by using them in the biomes they spawn naturally.

This is awesome! It gives us another thing to do in Minecraft when we are bored which is making a dog daycare with every dog breed.

My interpretation of what breeds these remind me of. Pale Wolf: Original Wolf Woods Wolf: German Shephard Ashen Wolf: Husky Black Wolf: Schipperke Chestnut Wolf: Great Dane Rusty Wolf: Maned Wolf Spotted Wolf: Wild Dog Striped Wolf: Aardwolf Snowy Wolf: Arctic Wolf

I love the black wolves the way their big eyes in contrast with the black colour is so cute

One type I really would've liked is the dingo. Chuck them either in the desert or Mesa where there's a bunch of red sand

There are many Canids that live in the tropics. Examples of these species include the Dhole, Golden jackal and the maned wolf. Most of these large species avoid dense forests, which is why a sparse jungle is perfect biome for them to spawn in.

The rusty wolf may be a reference to a type of canine called the "new guinea singing dog" which are found in jungle like setting in Papua new guinea, they are actually related to the dingo interestingly enough

I LOVE THEM! I LOVE THEM ALL! I ADORE THEM ALL! I WANT TO PET! THEM ALL!

The wolf update is for 1.20.5, the experimental blocks and trial chamber get shipped with 1.21

I'm gonna name the Ashen Wolf Ashley.

Wolves! Doggos!

Just imagine Technoblade’s dog army on the dream SMP if this was a feature back then. Miss you!!

So excited for this update! Gorgeous wolves and cute armadillos, aaaah!!

2:40 I think the rusty wolve is supposed to resemble a dhole

A striped wolf looks like a Tasmanian tiger

There are in fact a good few species of wolves that live in jungles of different varieties, there's a ton of different wolves that live in just about every biome (yes they are in fact called biomes) in the world, its really quite intriguing as to just how resilient wolves are.

This is interesting! didn't know this! Getting on Minecraft now for this snapshot haha!

Gotta catch em all!

I believe I've heard of wolves that belong in jungles.

There's a subspecies of grey wolf that called the Indian Wolf that lives in grasslands and dry tropical forest. I assume that's where they wanted to go with the ones that spawn in sparce jungles.

This makes me so happy. Ever since the cat update, I've been waiting. FINALLY!!!

I wish Minecraft had a mob that is so rare to find, like it should be the right biome, the right time, maybe the right weather and elevation to find some rare mob. That would be so cool

i got a camman short about this. i thought it was fake until other channels covered it too. i was so happy

Now it’s time for them to add the dog disc

This makes me so happy, I love blocky doggos

I usually don't play on one world for very long (if it's not modded, I usually end up restarting somewhere around when I get diamond armor), but if I do play one world for long enough I'm definitely going to try to find a Snowy wolf. I was hoping for there to be a snow variant from the start of the video, and was very happy to see that there is one (and exploring for a very rare wolf type is a kind of fun I don't usually do, so it'll be especially interesting).

Yoooo it's finally time for wolfs to get the spotlight

now I can't wait for the farm animal overhaul update someday (we got the puppers I'm allowed to keep dreaming for this lol). Variants of chickens,cows, and pigs. I'm hopeful Since I really want a black pig and highland cow in vanilla SO flippin much.

captian sparklez i swear i knew this will going to happened even when they added the wolf armor i told my friends there something missing and it will be added maybe soon or later and it was the wolf texture

I'm now excited for the new update

About the rusty Wolf: In Brasil we have the "Guara Wolf" that lives in the Atlantic forest biome. I do think he looks like the rusty boyo

Aaahhh what a dream come true! I can’t wait to have a pack of every type of wolf! 🐺

My favourites are definitely the black wolves and the spotted ones as the seem to represent the African Wild Dog, one of my favourite animals.

Community: we want a hyena Mojang: ( *colors a wolf brown with stripes* ) here you go.

Finally, I can get more doggos for my collection

"Do wolves live in jungles" Yes and no. If we are to talk specifically about gray wolves, aka canis lupus, then no, they don't inhabit jungles (despite of what Jungle Book might tell you). However many canines (as in - close relatives of OG gray wolves) do live in jungles, such as red maned wolf (chrysocyon brachyurus) or rusted wolf.

The armadillo may be a blessing in disguise 😂

so glad we are finally getting new dog colors. i like to have my mc pets named after my irl ones and now theres dogs much more like mine with the new colors (:

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR YEARS

2:42 It might be a refference to a rusty spotted cat tho, and I'm pretty sure that there is no wolves that live in a jungle

Everyone's been waiting for this. Very epic!

So happy to see u looking great again ❤
