Epic #SochiFail: Wolf in My Hallway - Jimmy Kimmel Hoax

Jimmy Kimmel punked the entired internet by filming a video of a domesticated wolf in his studio and then giving the footage to Olympian Kate Hansen. Hansen then posted on YouTube, claiming that she was pretty sure she saw a "wolf roaming the halls" of the dorm she was staying in while she was in Sochi! The video went viral and several news sources picked up the story believing that this was actual footage of a wild wolf roaming the hallway. It was all a hoax.

I don't see how people thought that this was a wild wolf. This is clearly a friendly domesticated animal that appears to be perfectly relaxed and friendly. It looks like a happy pet..but I have to say it was quite a funny prank. The wolf is actually adorable.
