Why? There's so much "spread the love about wolves" etc, and I DO LOVE WOLVES, but heck, wolves AREN'T GODS. During centuries humans have seen wolves as bad creatures, but it doesn't mean wolves were bad themselves, but now, trying to make them look like peaceful and friendly creatures is even getting worse .___.
Wolves are like every other animal: they can be friendly with their family, maybe with their pups and mate, or with their pack, but they are also violent, they can be dangerous to humans, or do you really think if you find a wild wolf in a forest and you try to touch him he wouldn't try to attack you? (Ok, maybe not, maybe he first tries to escape, but if he feels there's no escape, he sure will fight you back).

As I said above, I love wolves, but I love them as the animals they are, not the animals some people want them to be.
So, I can't understand why people say wolves are underrated, if they are everywhere! Wanna see underrated animals? Sharks, Hyenas, Wild African Dogs, Vultures, Bats, Crocodiles, Hyppos, Bearded Vultures... There's a bunch of them: amazing creatures without a big fanbase, or even with no fanbase at all.

Sharks are a good example: since the film "Jaws" was released, a lot of people (me inluded) have feared these fishes for being "human-killers", but, in fact, we humans kill more sharks that shark eats humans. Calling an animal "human-killer" is really stupid, since all the carnivore animals can kill a human if they are hunger enough, or too old to hunt their common meal. And sharks are no exceptions.

So, here I draw a chibi shark, or at least I tried. Sharks can be as cute as any other animal, just like puppies or kitties, but of course, just because you draw them cute, it doesn't mean these animals would stop being dangerous and really powerful, so they should be respected and even a bit feared.
I think sharks need more love, as they're are incredibly creatures, and one of the most primitive and less evolved of our planet, which means they have been capable of surviving without many changes during centuries.

Sorry if I offended anyone, I didn't mean to sound harsh or rude, but that's how I see things: not all animals are goodies or baddies, they all have good things and bad things, and we should try to protect and respect them. Do you really think your favourite animals is underrated? Just check how many pictures (no photos, or photo-manipulations) are here on dA, and pics of invented creatures based on them, on their form, their life style, etc... Then you will find out.

If you liked this, try to draw a shark!
It doesn't have to be a realistic one, nor a cute, chibi shark, jut draw them as you want.

My grand fantasy image of saving the sharks a la Jaws: I am an armed shark rights activist, protecting the sharks of Cat Island in the Bahamas, my ship the /Defender/ is sinking after facing a small fleet of shark poachers, most of my crew either fled for help or killed in action, I clamor to the crow's nest with an M14/21 sniper rifle and prepare to make a last stand against the final poacher ship.
"All right you yellow sons of bitches, show me what you got, show me your fuel drum. Blow up!"
*Fires in two shot bursts killing one of the four man crew. The next two bursts kill two more, the captain floors the engine to try and run me over*
"COME ON! GIMME A SHOT!" *Fires another burst*
"BLOW UP!" *Another two-shot burst*
"BLOW UP DAMMIT!" *Fires another salvo, I line up a clean shot at the red oil drum rich with fuel after taking a last glimpse at the face of the homicidally insane Chinese captain and say...*
"SMILE YOU UGLY SONS OF ZEDONG!" *The last shot hits the fuel drum, the whole ship explodes in a gigantic blaze of glory and I scream-laugh in ecstatic victory as it sinks to the bottom*
"Chef Ramsay, Eli Roth, Altbacker, (shark lovers/activists and E.J. Altback is the author of my favorite book saga Shark Wars) I've won! We've won."

Great whites are pretty overrated when it comes to ferocity and power, though. Maybe it could gain more respect if people saw it as more than just a fearsome killing machine.

Let's not forget that there's plenty of other shark species that need more exposure, like the mako and the thresher.

i like this picture, i am in fact a big fan of sharks. Great whites are my very favorite, i think because i watched the movie Jaws as a child but instead of developing a fear of them i grew to love and respect them. i have also a great love for bats and know they are sadly misunderstood like a lot of creatures given a more feared and bad reputations, i also love reptilians like snakes, lizards, crocodiles, ect. i love wolves too but i also agree with you there are so many animals that deserve some love and attention but do not receive enough or none of it. you picture is very good and i love it, thank you for doing a shark

Awww,poor shark.It's true,people are obsessed with wolves nowadays.But you can't really compare them to sharks.Sharks=fish,wolves=mammals.Also,wolves aren't always dangerous to humans,only if they're really hungry.They don't always attack you.This reminds me of something...when I was 10 or 11(and seriously obsessed with wolves)I had a face to face encounter with a wolf.I touched its muzzle and it didn't attack me.BTW,great drawing
