(104,625 posts)wolves rarely attack humans, bear ans lions, on the other hand, will. Ever been out in the wild where all three predators exist? I am not afraid of bears or lions but I am more wary about being in their habitat than I am with wolves simply because wolves will only bother you if you get too close to a den or a place where they have young pups, or if you are too close to a kill site where they are feeding, or if you are silly enough to take a dog into known wolf country when you go out. You just have to know how to behave in wild country. And except in the case of bringing dogs along, most encounters end well for both species.
Wolves aren't the problem, humans who think they are sepcialler than all other life forms on the planet are.
I live here and go out almost any time of year, except when the hunters are out shooting at anything that moves, and track wolves. They are beautiful as are all other wildlife, I cherish any encounter with any species... with the exception of most humans.
