Aw! :')
Ok, so we should leave the wolves alone (for now).

Pencil...
The featured pencil is the 'Toison D'or' (Golden Fleece) by Bohemia Works. Bohemia Works is Koh-I-Noor ('Hardtmuth)') in disguise (so I haven't broken the pattern here)!
Bohemia Works is the label Koh-I-Noor put on pencils made for sale in regions where the name 'Koh-I-Noor' was registered to some other company.
This pencil is marked 'Czechoslovakia', suggesting this pencil was made before 1992, when Czechoslovakia divided into the Czech Republic and Slovakia (respectively).
Koh-I-Noor had license to use the name 'Koh-I-Noor' in (what was) Czechoslovakia, so why was the pencil stamped 'Bohemia Works'?
