The residents affected by the Funny River fire come in many shapes and sizes and a litter of wolf pups found Tuesday near the fire line were no different.

Huslia crew member Jefferson Sam said he and his crew knew about a wolf den of abandoned pups on the line and did what firefighter would do for someone in need.

“Well they’re helpless, you know,” Sam said. “We kind of knew the mother was around there.”

One of the pups actually came out of the den, Sam said, and to him it looked like the pup, a female, was asking for help. “We thought she was the smart one,” Sam said.

5. Damn it...Just when you're sure humans are evil, some go out and save some of our cubs

Now I think I'm going to


I will pray that Odin's wolves, Geri and Freki, will watch over these good humans while they continue their dangerous work.
