In the real world, there are tons of sub-variants of wolves roaming the planet.
Despite that, in Minecraft they have looked exactly the same since 2011, even with heaps of updates to the game.
The stunning creatures have often been tamed by players of the crafting game and used as pets (then referred to as dogs) that can also help in combat against hostile beings, but the lack of diversity in their appearance has led fans to call for a change.
Well, it is good news for Minecrafters, as there is an update that will make you howl with joy. Read on to find out more.

In the post, it was announced that the update would launch in the beta versions of Minecraft: Bedrock Edition and Minecraft: Java Edition.
The game’s original wolf will also be classified as The Pale Wolf going forward. The new variants are as follows:
Adding to that news, the post stated that wolf armour will also be introduced. This customisable feature will absorb all enemy damage before breaking, which will be handy when in a scrape.

Now that they have been unleashed into the block-laden wilds of Minecraft, you are probably going to want to track them down, aren’t you?
Well, read on to find out where each one can be found.
