Shane Dawson gifted this guy with the best thing a YouTuber could possibly have; an army of impressionable pre-tweens who think YouTube personalities are real celebrities.
I don't think there's been enough coverage about what happened to Kero's late boyfriend, who, as you may know, was also a dogfucker (surprise!) There was an attempt by his comrades to scrub his content (his hardware was reportedly destroyed, but his accounts are still pristine). Without further ado:
Kevin Patrick Perlstein / "Colwyn Collie" / "Illone Sheppypaws" / "White Shepard" / Niklo
1990-01-09 -- 2018-07-13
Kevin was the late boyfriend of
Kero the Wolf, former YouTube celebrity, located in Morristown, New Jersey. Kevin was renowned by his circles for being a frequent contributor to
Animal's Dark Paradise, a now-defunct deepweb zoophilia forum.
Kevin died of heroin poisoning on Friday, July 13, 2018, at 28 years of age. Kevin had a history of drug abuse and sexual deviancy, attending
nude parties and
publishing homemade bestiality content to the internet. A week later, his friends discover what happened after having no contact for so long, and begin to mourn him within various Telegram conversations.
On the same day, Kero makes a
Tweet mourning his boyfriend, who he refers to as "Colwyn Collie". Over a week later, Kero released a
video mentioning his relationship and death, and contained newly commissioned artwork with the character from
Twitter artist Cozy Collie.
(Worth mentioning: the video features a Telegram snapshot of a quote that exists verbatim in the Kero-Yami log dump, which further adds to the list of things that are accurately and verbosely described in the logs).
An important thing that ties the two identities together is a memorial page for
Kevin Patrick Perlstein (
archive), someone who died on 13th July, 2018 in Morristown, PA. On the obituary page are comments from the following people:
"Warg Schwarz" (lit. "black wolf"). This is one of woof's aliases.

"
Kaide Otashi", some gay furry. No obvious connections, probably scrubbed, but coincidental nonetheless.

But most important is a comment from "
Willow Lackett", a tranny friend of Illone who put an in memoriam message on
their FurAffinity profile for "Niklo".
"Niklo" is a very old alias of Illone Sheppypaws. This is evidenced through a
YouTube account that links the two identities through URL and display name. More damningly, both Willow and "Shiro Okami" / shiropup show up in both Illone's
Steam friends list and Niklo's
FurAffinity comments mourning his death.
So we have these people mourning Kevin Perlstein, a guy who died on the 13th of July, also posting comments to Illone's accounts and having public connections to him in the same timeframe. On the other hand, there is Kero mourning the death of "Colwyn Collie", who died on the same day, in the same home town, of the same cause of death.
Simply: "Colwyn Collie" never existed. Googling this name takes you to the video and the tweet by Kero, but nothing else. He had no profiles, no references, or anything. This was an alias purely created by Kero so he could talk about the issue publicly without being traced back to Illone.
Accounts of a dead guy:
Facebook (

FurAffinity (
archive) -- his favorites are almost entirely feral dogs and the comments are now an obituary.
Inkbunny (
archive) -- no content, just faves.
Steam (
archive)
StonerFurs (
archive) -- no content, but fits the profile of a junkie.
Telegram: last known account handle was @zombiehyena. This handle clashes with some other person's online identity; don't follow this.
Twitter (
archive)
YouTube -- no content, but of note is custom URL 'NikloJagermonsta' which connects the two identities.
