LOL Cool ability :P

It's kind of like animal telepathy. It would be funnier though to have an ability to talk to animals like Dr Doolittle, but I like this one too (you can make animals into your minions):P Rocky 12:05, 12 October 2010 (EDT)

Question

Did Markus only use this ability on dogs or were there other animals that he controlled and communicated with? Jonniboi212 16:21, 12 October 2009 (EDT)

• Cats, birds, and maybe an alligator.—Ratclaws 16:27, 12 October 2009 (EDT)

• About time. If he had killed the dog, it would have made my day. Intuitive Empath - Talk - Contributions 14:30, 13 October 2009 (EDT)
  • Mr. Muggles will punish you for these words! He will eat your brain and devour your very soul, and you will become essentially one with Mr. Muggles! AltesUTC CH
    • I can't stand dog worshiping, it feels like everyone is Paris Hilton. Intuitive Empath - Talk - Contributions 09:39, 15 October 2009 (EDT)

Primary Picture

The main picture placed on the page... is that really a picture of the Animal control ability in use? Isn't that a pic of Sylar holding Mr. Muggles in a specific episode in Season 1? The one when he broke out of the Bennet house to steal Claire's ability? I think it needs to be changed as nothing there suggest that a a human is controlling an animal, just holding it. Thoughts?—Realistic

• That's the picture we were given in the iStory, so that's the one we have to stick with. —mc_hammark 07:42, 14 February 2010 (EST)
  • Yeah, unfortunately, that's the picture that was chosen by NBC to show Wildman using his ability on Muggles. See here. Ugh. — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 20:35, 14 February 2010 (EST)
