(DIVIDE, Colo.) — A lot of people have strong opinions on who they believe will emerge victorious from the 2023 Super Bowl matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles, and apparently, so does one wolf at the Colorado Wolf and Wildlife Center (CWWC).
CWWC posted a video to their Twitter account, featuring a Super Bowl LVII prediction by 5-year-old wolf, Chakra.
In the video, Chakra is shown two images – each of the teams’ logos held out for her to choose from. She doesn’t even hesitate, she knows exactly who is winning the big game this year!
Watch the video below:
And the winner is… the Philadelphia Eagles!
Chakra made a b-line for that Eagles logo, solidly predicting a Philadelphia win on Sunday.
Never fear if you’re a KC fan, though. CWWC said this is the fourth year they’ve had a wolf pick the Super Bowl winner, and the wolves have only been right once.
CWWC takes the prediction game very seriously, and said they switch up which wolf gets to pick the winner “so there is no room for bias.”
“Our wolves obviously have no idea what they’re choosing, but they quite enjoy the activity of getting to shred a piece of paper,” said Erika Moore, the Assistant Director and Animal Care Supervisor with CWWC.
CWWC said fun enrichment opportunities like this are an essential mission of the center, along with educating the public about coexisting not just with wolves, but with wildlife.
Super Bowl LVII begins with pre-game coverage at 11 a.m. on Sunday, Feb. 12 on FOX21, and kick off is set for 4:30 p.m. Mountain Time from State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.
