To add on to what Chishio said, a large reason for the notoriety of the furry fandom is because they are well-known for harboring a group of a bit too avid furry fans who post ... explicit artwork and fiction across the webs. There are also people who dislike the fact that some furry fans turn all their favorite characters into furries (similar to the bronies with their pony-fying everything, which has gathered a similar hatedom for it). And, like most fandoms, there's the extreme radical sector of the fandom that believes that all non-furries/furry lovers are retarded (not even kidding here) and/or should die (I've seen them on deviantArt).

Long story short, the worst parts of the furry fandom are made known far and wide (like most fandoms anyways?), but theirs has a particularly bad rap given to them. I can only name around 3 other fandoms with such a generally negative reputation.

(And I am not incriminating Wolf of being the above, it's just an explanation of why he and his fandom gets a lot of hate.)
