"...We're hungry." I really felt that line near the end; you could hear the pitiful tone. They're not evil, heartless monsters, they're desperate, hungry animals, who just want to feed themselves and their families. They're just trying to survive.
Actually, that's not because of a bond, it's because wolf packs are just nothing but a pack of family members, they basically won't hurt family That's also the reason why alfas/betas thing about wolves is completely false, it's just all a family structure
For the DnD nerds. This is the real Paladin - Lawful Good - he has a charge to defend a strike out if they are threatened and he did BUT also protected those who do harm. This kind of thing is why Paladins are Charismatic along with strength
Well these wolves weren't evil. Just hungry. Imagine desperate and broke refugees trying to rob you. "Listen. I understand, I truly do, but we have no resources we can spare.
I was thinking the exact same thing. Though he had the strength to make any attack on the flock costly, he opted to go the route that resulted in no one getting hurt, but never backed down from the danger. A violent encounter was in no one's interest, but he was ready for it all the same. The dialogue doesn't even need to change that much either to make this work, just imply that the paladin's master is their deity, and they'll definitely take note if the paladin starts making a ruckus.
I like how Big Jack went "At least One" implying that he swears he's going to take down one of them at a minimum if they attack, but he absolutely is going to do his best too add onto that number as much as possible if they try him. Stone cold threat of a pupper who knows he'll die if it comes to a fight but will die hard against them if needed.
He made it clear he is above posturing and subterfuge, unlike the wolves who bluffed about their numbers and boasted about their abilities. Even so, that one is guaranteed, a constant in the equation.
There is an video from erzurum turkey , the native land of anatolian ( sivas) sheperds, a sivas kangal killed 4 wolfs that attack his herd and die later
Main problem is wolves attack to the neck and shepherds put a spiked collar to the anatolian shepherd.So they cant kill it quickly by attacking to the neck and god forbid any live being who want to go war of attrition with an anatolian shepherd.They are big heavy and damn strong
The loyalty of animals to humans never ceases to amaze me, particularly dogs and horses. It's our responsibility to make sure that we earn that loyalty every day.
We really lucked the hell out when we were breeding dogs and managed to get the, I think it's called, "hyper-sociability gene" or such. Which basically makes them, well, hyper social. Came with a large scoop of loyalty to their 'pack'. It's quite interesting to read about. People have been trying to get the same gene in other animals, like foxes. But no luck. Same for cats.
I feel like even the voice acting isn't meant to convey they as evil. The speech bubbles used are black and sometimes have a whispered effect added. Usually, this is reserved for horror. They are meant to be creepy or threatening up until the point Big Jack points out they are just an animal doing what animals do, especially when pushed. They are desperate.
@cosmicreef5858 I feel that it was better that the wolves had such a monstrous voice to them. It misleads the viewer, thinking of them as just another beast to be wary of, much like a sheep in the herd. It adds a sense of danger to them, more than two dots in the shadows would ever. In a way, it also puts the viewer in the shoes of not only the sheep, but also in the dog's shoes. They are threats, and the voice only cements thag fact. And yet, when at the end, as big Jack gets asked if he saw monsters, he said that they were just another pack of animals searching for food. His response adds soul to the otherwise villains of a story, and clarifies that all of them are just the same in the end, only in different boats. Btw this isn't to argue or anything I just really like the voice acting lmao
....well...giving them a very posh polite way of speaking would be very inappropriate given that they wanted to kill a sheep or two..whimpering noises would also be weird..imo, the wolf's voice acting was spot on..a bit of snarling and he actually sounds wild and threatening..which how wolves are..
Fun fact: the spiky dog collar originates from shepherding dogs, equipped with spiky collars to protect them from the wolf's favorite kill shot. The real ones are more akin to a buncho nails strapped to a dog's neck than the thick cone like spikes. Because of this a shepherd dog, the biggest of which is still smaller than a wolf, can usually take on a group of several and come out injured, but alive on four or five corpses. And while the injuries of the other wolves that run away may claim some, the dog will most likely be nursed to full health by the humans.
Years ago we lived in an area with a lot of very bold/ hungry coyotes. I ended up putting spiked collars on both my dogs. It looked particularly cute on the chihuahua, but made our Shepard mix look pretty intimidating
Unironically, a movie premis I be down to watch. Just a simple story about the life of an Anatolian shepherd farm dog doing his job and being kind in his own way.
I feel like this would be better suited to small shorts from different animals’ perspectives. Heck, you could do one from the wolves’ perspectives leading up to and afterwards
Logic. And an absolute willingness to throw down your life if needed. Being able to hold your own 10 to 1 (even if only for a moment) also helps. Not to mention the ability to call in an even more powerfull ally. Should the need arise.
FYI! The Anatolian Shepherd/Kangal Shepherd Dog is a traditional Turkish breed of large livestock guardian dog. Anatolians descend from some of the oldest known domestic-canine bloodlines. This lends the breed a sense of timelessness, a no-frills, untouched quality that takes us back 6,000 years to the Bronze Age. Anatolians are smart, devoted, responsive, and adaptable. They will protect their flock'livestock, children, smaller dogs. Anatolian Shepherd Dog's bite force is around 743 PSI - they have the highest bite force of any breed of dog. As comparison, a pitbull's bite force is measured around 240-330 PSI and a wolf's bite force is measured around 1200 PSI.
@@captainofthecontrarians4204 As far as I know, Anatolian shepherd is a breed produced from Kangal by Americans (because in Turkey, it is forbidden to export purebred Kangals). Only difference they have its their sizes. Kangal is massive. Anatolian shepherd is little bitty smaller. thats the only difference Also Europe’s Federation Cynologique Internationale considers the two breeds to be so similar that they are classed as the same
Rough Cowboy, or stoic Scottish Warrior. Both fit Big Jack. Love this comic so much, especially how many dubs have come out. Your version is especially creative.
I appreciate the effort but I couldn't concentrate on the story because of the accent. I'm Scottish and it was close but sounds kinda weird. Also, I know it doesn't matter but we haven't had wolves here for thousands of years so i don't think we have livestock guardian dogs. Still I'm glad people enjoyed this version!
I really liked this. Big Jack did not treat them as monsters, or even as villains. Just hungry animals, that he feels bad for. But he got a job, and he will protect the sheep.
My great uncle (R.I.P.) had 4 anatolian sheperds. They're called "kangals" in Turkey, they were the best dogs, the oldest one's name was paşa (pronounced pasha), he is still the best dog i ever met, he was about the size of a small car. Sadly, back in 2020, an unidentified person shot and killed paşa, we dont know why, and not long after that my great uncle lost his battle against lung cancer on August 7th, 2023 both will always be in my family's hearts, theyre both in heaven now.
Sheep: "Between you and the wolves, who is the strongest?" Big Jack: "Well, if the whole pack came at once, they might cause me a little trouble." Sheep: "But would you lose?" Big Jack: "Nah, i'd win."
@JDdeleon1 the point was not surviving and protecting the sheep, they'd lose one of their own- possibly more considering how starved they could be, and that'd be more than enough, not even considering the human coming out to get his gun

Masterful work, the story highlights the paradox of predators, they need to kill to eat but they’re always wary of risk to themselves, the Shepherd knows this and convinced them the sheep aren’t worth the risk.
This reminds me of the story of a Shepard dog that hunted down an entire pack of like 8 coyotes cos they attacked his flock and his pregnant mate was near them. They might fail to defend the whole flock, but they damn sure will avenge them. Edit: fixed story details
@@strickplayer2116 I believe his name was Casper. If I remember right, the other sheep dog was pregnant at the time, so he had a lot he was protecting that night. He left for a week hunting down the whole pack and had to have surgery when they found him.
Mutually assured destruction is the basis for respect. The threat of becoming embroiled in a fight where even if you win, you still lose, is the friction which keeps things civil.
My favorite version of this was from Sense8 of all shows, it went something like: “my mother stood there with her kitchen knife and all ten of the men knew that they could easily overpower her but she’d kill at least one of them, and none of them wanted to be that one.”
@@lilbee3840 Yeah if I remember correctly he took 4 out on the spot and hunted down the rest over the next several days ultimately finishing with 11 in total. He came home battered and bruised with several wounds but eventually made a full recovery. I believe I also heard that he's in retirement now let's hope he can enjoy it and won't be forced out to settle any scores.
Reminds me of the story of a sheep dog who got attacked by a pack of coyotes. It hurt his wife. And he was n the woods for nearly a week. He. Killed. The. Entire. Pack. And came back out alive, wounded, Weak, and covered in blood. Not just his own. Edit I got the story a tad off So at 3 or so in the morning a farmer wakes up to a commotion. He sees his two guard dogs, a male and a *pregnant female* surrounded by 11 cayots. In a 30 minute struggle the male (Casper) killed 8 of them. Then ran after the rest. He was gone for 2 days. And presumed dead. Later he comes limping out of the forest. And later they find the body of the 3 that escaped him.
Yep, they are strong, brave dogs. And the crazy thing is that they are not even the only dogs that would stand up to a wolf. I just got through watching a video called *Pitbull saves Kangal from a Wolf!!!*
@@devrancaliskan7153 I have seen Pitbulls beat kangals one on one, but one time I came across a video where a kangal was battling a dog that was like an American Bully or something. Another dog that looked more like an American Pitbull showed up a little later on in the battle. Is that what you are talking about? That is a bit different from a kangal beating two Pitbulls together.
"If you fight me, I will kill at least one of you, and if you're willing to sacrifice one of you to feed the rest, might as well just eat 'em now and save us all the trouble." I don't know why exactly, but that was a really good part.
@@Non_Consistent_Potato I mean it's not bad logic. Because long term that would still be the ultimate sacrifice. Doesn't matter if there were multiple corpses that day. Next time you are hungry you are still one down.
@@Non_Consistent_Potato They're wolves. They can only eat what can fill their bellies. It's not like they can save some for later, you know. One wolf could easily fill the bellies of nine others, anything more than that would just go to waste.
anatolian shepherds like Jack are raised with the animals they are guarding so it makes sense that the lamb would be Ok with Jack around as they see them as a member of the flock
Remembers me about the sheperd dog called Casper, who killed 8 coyotes to defend the sheeps and the pregnant mother of his pups. Then proceeded to track down the remaining 3 over the next days. He's alive and well without a ear and a tail and currently an indoor dog.
The Scottish accents make this so much better, along with the bored expression on Jack’s face. He’s Liam Neeson if he were a dog. And the wolves are like, “Slink away boys, slink away” 😂
So calm and stradfast even if he is sympathetic with them, his job is to orotect and he eill do it no matter what. And the ice cold: One if you will not live if you attack, pick that one and eat it. The way the other froze in shock at how utterly ruthless, but no less kind he was about it sends shivers up my spine.
Jesus christ, I have a Kangal dog from Afghanistan. She is a descendent of the Anatolian Shepherd bloodline, old blood, this literally brought tears to my eyes. She is past her prime, but this is her to a tee! Thank you again!
Kangal from afghanistan? wtf :D it's belong to Sivas which is a mother city of Kangal. interesting. btw Kangal and Anatolian Shepherd is 2 different kind.
My beautiful Country's, beautiful souls, the "Gentle Giants".. such amazing breeds both Anatolian Shepherd and Kangal. Loved the video. Thanks for all the effort.
this is just like real life, you help where you can but sometimes you CAN'T help. even if it might seem like you can to others. this sheep dog has a lot of sheep, some people would say he could spare one, but he can't, don't get mad at other people when what you should really get mad at is the world. but don't sulk, use that anger to help yourself as much as possible. then when you can help others less fortunate than you.

The fact that the one who made this is the same one as the one who makes the pixie and brutus comics is impressive
the art style is same too
"...We're hungry." I really felt that line near the end; you could hear the pitiful tone. They're not evil, heartless monsters, they're desperate, hungry animals, who just want to feed themselves and their families. They're just trying to survive.
Wolves wont sacrifice their own just for a meal. Thats the precious bond they share. I love how this comic shows both animals' best attributes. ❤
Actually, that's not because of a bond, it's because wolf packs are just nothing but a pack of family members, they basically won't hurt family
That's also the reason why alfas/betas thing about wolves is completely false, it's just all a family structure
@@Thispersonisreal "They don't have a bond, they're just a family!" 😆
They will if they're truly, truly, desperate and are completely out of better options, but it's hard for them to reach that point
@@Thispersonisreal Yeah that’s called a family bond which is a type of BOND.
yeah unfortunately they actually will eat sick or injured pack members.. so uh quite the bond
For the DnD nerds. This is the real Paladin - Lawful Good - he has a charge to defend a strike out if they are threatened and he did BUT also protected those who do harm. This kind of thing is why Paladins are Charismatic along with strength
Paladins also gain an immunity to fear
Well these wolves weren't evil. Just hungry. Imagine desperate and broke refugees trying to rob you. "Listen. I understand, I truly do, but we have no resources we can spare.
I was thinking the exact same thing. Though he had the strength to make any attack on the flock costly, he opted to go the route that resulted in no one getting hurt, but never backed down from the danger. A violent encounter was in no one's interest, but he was ready for it all the same.
The dialogue doesn't even need to change that much either to make this work, just imply that the paladin's master is their deity, and they'll definitely take note if the paladin starts making a ruckus.
@@RequiemPoete he didnt call the wolves evil.. he only said "those who do harm"
I literally just made a character based off of this
I like how Big Jack went "At least One" implying that he swears he's going to take down one of them at a minimum if they attack, but he absolutely is going to do his best too add onto that number as much as possible if they try him.
Stone cold threat of a pupper who knows he'll die if it comes to a fight but will die hard against them if needed.
He made it clear he is above posturing and subterfuge, unlike the wolves who bluffed about their numbers and boasted about their abilities. Even so, that one is guaranteed, a constant in the equation.
There is an video from erzurum turkey , the native land of anatolian ( sivas) sheperds, a sivas kangal killed 4 wolfs that attack his herd and die later
As the song goes "How many of them can we make die?"
As r/HFY so eloquently puts it, "there is room in this grave for you too."
Main problem is wolves attack to the neck and shepherds put a spiked collar to the anatolian shepherd.So they cant kill it quickly by attacking to the neck and god forbid any live being who want to go war of attrition with an anatolian shepherd.They are big heavy and damn strong
I LOVE how you voiced the dog especially. There’s a kind of firm strength with a tad bit of real melancholy for the wolves.
The loyalty of animals to humans never ceases to amaze me, particularly dogs and horses. It's our responsibility to make sure that we earn that loyalty every day.
We really lucked the hell out when we were breeding dogs and managed to get the, I think it's called, "hyper-sociability gene" or such. Which basically makes them, well, hyper social. Came with a large scoop of loyalty to their 'pack'. It's quite interesting to read about. People have been trying to get the same gene in other animals, like foxes. But no luck. Same for cats.
I love how(except the voice acting) none of them are potrayed as evil.
As the dog said they are just innocent animals who are trying to survive
I feel like even the voice acting isn't meant to convey they as evil. The speech bubbles used are black and sometimes have a whispered effect added. Usually, this is reserved for horror. They are meant to be creepy or threatening up until the point Big Jack points out they are just an animal doing what animals do, especially when pushed. They are desperate.
@@spookypooky1362 i meant as the wolf's voice acting indicated evil intentons even thou the poor thing had no such thing in their mind
@cosmicreef5858 I feel that it was better that the wolves had such a monstrous voice to them. It misleads the viewer, thinking of them as just another beast to be wary of, much like a sheep in the herd. It adds a sense of danger to them, more than two dots in the shadows would ever.
In a way, it also puts the viewer in the shoes of not only the sheep, but also in the dog's shoes. They are threats, and the voice only cements thag fact.
And yet, when at the end, as big Jack gets asked if he saw monsters, he said that they were just another pack of animals searching for food. His response adds soul to the otherwise villains of a story, and clarifies that all of them are just the same in the end, only in different boats.
Btw this isn't to argue or anything I just really like the voice acting lmao
Exactly, and you can easily read that as the wolves trying to make themselves sound scarier and more intimidating
....well...giving them a very posh polite way of speaking would be very inappropriate given that they wanted to kill a sheep or two..whimpering noises would also be weird..imo, the wolf's voice acting was spot on..a bit of snarling and he actually sounds wild and threatening..which how wolves are..
Fun fact: the spiky dog collar originates from shepherding dogs, equipped with spiky collars to protect them from the wolf's favorite kill shot. The real ones are more akin to a buncho nails strapped to a dog's neck than the thick cone like spikes. Because of this a shepherd dog, the biggest of which is still smaller than a wolf, can usually take on a group of several and come out injured, but alive on four or five corpses. And while the injuries of the other wolves that run away may claim some, the dog will most likely be nursed to full health by the humans.
Years ago we lived in an area with a lot of very bold/ hungry coyotes. I ended up putting spiked collars on both my dogs. It looked particularly cute on the chihuahua, but made our Shepard mix look pretty intimidating
A kangal with spiked collar, cropped ears and a bad attitude makes ANYTHING think twice before messing around.
Casper can approve this. It really makes a difference, when he killed dozen coyotes.
Ohhhh, interesting! :D That's so cool!
One small correction though: kangals can grow much larger than wolves.
The voice of the wolves is gonna haunt me. Besides that, The Shepard's responses were the definition of "I go down, I'm dragging you with me"
I'm glad the voice had an impact >:)

Sometimes the most effective way to scare off your enemies is to use actual logic.
I'm not gonna lie but I think logic is scary to a lot of people because it shows them stuff they don't want to admit
Totally underrated comment right here!
Logic. And an absolute willingness to throw down your life if needed.
Being able to hold your own 10 to 1 (even if only for a moment) also helps.
Not to mention the ability to call in an even more powerfull ally. Should the need arise.
Staying calm and having the bodymass to back up your words helps a lot too
This was excellent. Really captured the maturity, calmness, and powerful aura of a Kangal
FYI! The Anatolian Shepherd/Kangal Shepherd Dog is a traditional Turkish breed of large livestock guardian dog. Anatolians descend from some of the oldest known domestic-canine bloodlines. This lends the breed a sense of timelessness, a no-frills, untouched quality that takes us back 6,000 years to the Bronze Age. Anatolians are smart, devoted, responsive, and adaptable. They will protect their flock'livestock, children, smaller dogs. Anatolian Shepherd Dog's bite force is around 743 PSI - they have the highest bite force of any breed of dog. As comparison, a pitbull's bite force is measured around 240-330 PSI and a wolf's bite force is measured around 1200 PSI.
You are right about alot but Anatolian and Kangal are different breeds. Although fairly close
@@captainofthecontrarians4204 As far as I know, Anatolian shepherd is a breed produced from Kangal by Americans (because in Turkey, it is forbidden to export purebred Kangals). Only difference they have its their sizes. Kangal is massive. Anatolian shepherd is little bitty smaller. thats the only difference
Also Europe’s Federation Cynologique Internationale considers the two breeds to be so similar that they are classed as the same
The deep Scottish voice gives me chills

I appreciate the effort but I couldn't concentrate on the story because of the accent. I'm Scottish and it was close but sounds kinda weird. Also, I know it doesn't matter but we haven't had wolves here for thousands of years so i don't think we have livestock guardian dogs. Still I'm glad people enjoyed this version!
Big jack might be turkish
Anatolians are a Turkish breed
I really liked this. Big Jack did not treat them as monsters, or even as villains. Just hungry animals, that he feels bad for. But he got a job, and he will protect the sheep.
I like how the entire time they used intimidation to mitigate losses. It really mixed logic and emotion to convey a sense of cruelty
My great uncle (R.I.P.) had 4 anatolian sheperds. They're called "kangals" in Turkey, they were the best dogs, the oldest one's name was paşa (pronounced pasha), he is still the best dog i ever met, he was about the size of a small car. Sadly, back in 2020, an unidentified person shot and killed paşa, we dont know why, and not long after that my great uncle lost his battle against lung cancer on August 7th, 2023 both will always be in my family's hearts, theyre both in heaven now.
Finally, the big Jack comic dub we been waiting for.

I think the.. vaguely demonic voice acting for the wolves misses the point of them not being monsters, but just hungry, desperate animals.
He makes me think of Gerard Butler
Missed chance to give the kangal a Turkish accent
What accent is it infact@@Dicka899
Sheep: "Between you and the wolves, who is the strongest?"
Big Jack: "Well, if the whole pack came at once, they might cause me a little trouble."
Sheep: "But would you lose?"
Big Jack: "Nah, i'd win."
Depends on the wolf.
@JDdeleon1 the point was not surviving and protecting the sheep, they'd lose one of their own- possibly more considering how starved they could be, and that'd be more than enough, not even considering the human coming out to get his gun

this is a jjk meme do not take this as a serious interpretation
@@MC-qm5jn fair enough my fellow cooked friend
Masterful work, the story highlights the paradox of predators, they need to kill to eat but they’re always wary of risk to themselves, the Shepherd knows this and convinced them the sheep aren’t worth the risk.
And if the master loses that dog, what makes you think he won't hunt down every last one of them. Man is dangerously emotional.
Yes they are. My old girl was an anatolian shepherd, and she was quite the guardian. May she rest in peace.
This reminds me of the story of a Shepard dog that hunted down an entire pack of like 8 coyotes cos they attacked his flock and his pregnant mate was near them.
They might fail to defend the whole flock, but they damn sure will avenge them.
Edit: fixed story details
Your not the first one to mention this story. Does it have I title? I’m trying to find it.
@@strickplayer2116 I believe his name was Casper. If I remember right, the other sheep dog was pregnant at the time, so he had a lot he was protecting that night. He left for a week hunting down the whole pack and had to have surgery when they found him.
Yeah. What they ^ said. Look for "Dog kills 8 coyotes".
Oh I remember this story
You speak of the legendary CoyoteSlayer. Even now the wolves and coyotes still howl in fear and shame at the mere mention of his name.
Mutually assured destruction is the basis for respect. The threat of becoming embroiled in a fight where even if you win, you still lose, is the friction which keeps things civil.
One sword keeps the other in it’s sheath, as they say.
This is the truth of the animal kingdom when it comes to choosing food
I mean it's one Anatolian shepherds, if this was a few more they would have the upper hand
If a sheepdog was capable of speech I would be delighted if they would be as honourable and loyal as this fine lad.
My favorite version of this was from Sense8 of all shows, it went something like: “my mother stood there with her kitchen knife and all ten of the men knew that they could easily overpower her but she’d kill at least one of them, and none of them wanted to be that one.”
Been a while since I heard that show

"Mighta jus' pick that one and eat em" is an incredibly brutal line and one that appeals to the situation just brutal

that gave me chills. amazing voice acting. i mean. that's why i love your channel.
Reminds me of the story of a sheep dog who got attacked by a pack of coyotes.
It hurt his wife. And he was n the woods for nearly a week.
He. Killed. The. Entire. Pack.
And came back out alive, wounded, Weak, and covered in blood. Not just his own.
Edit I got the story a tad off
So at 3 or so in the morning a farmer wakes up to a commotion. He sees his two guard dogs, a male and a *pregnant female* surrounded by 11 cayots.
In a 30 minute struggle the male (Casper) killed 8 of them.
Then ran after the rest. He was gone for 2 days. And presumed dead.
Later he comes limping out of the forest. And later they find the body of the 3 that escaped him.
He really didnt want any sorvivors

Yep, they are strong, brave dogs. And the crazy thing is that they are not even the only dogs that would stand up to a wolf. I just got through watching a video called *Pitbull saves Kangal from a Wolf!!!*
do u want to see when a kangal beats 2 pittbulls togheter?
@@devrancaliskan7153 I have seen Pitbulls beat kangals one on one, but one time I came across a video where a kangal was battling a dog that was like an American Bully or something. Another dog that looked more like an American Pitbull showed up a little later on in the battle. Is that what you are talking about? That is a bit different from a kangal beating two Pitbulls together.
"If you fight me, I will kill at least one of you, and if you're willing to sacrifice one of you to feed the rest, might as well just eat 'em now and save us all the trouble."
I don't know why exactly, but that was a really good part.
Its speaks to the futility of the struggle.
Kinda bad logic though. They’d have a dog, a wolf, and some sheep to eat too. Not considering the man with his rifle to kill them, of course
@@Non_Consistent_Potato I mean it's not bad logic. Because long term that would still be the ultimate sacrifice. Doesn't matter if there were multiple corpses that day. Next time you are hungry you are still one down.
@@Non_Consistent_Potato They're wolves. They can only eat what can fill their bellies. It's not like they can save some for later, you know. One wolf could easily fill the bellies of nine others, anything more than that would just go to waste.
