      Doesn't mean much if the laws say you can't shoot the wolves circling your home...
      ...like in Finland with 6th most weapons per capita in the world and police and politicians imposing the absolute shit ton of fees and fines to anyone who shoots a wolf without a permit (oh yeah, self-defense is not a defense in court with "Duty To Retreat" being the mandatory strategy by law).
      So yeah, at the moment wolves are descending from the north-east and each year they are found more and more towards the south and the capital. Few years ago one family had constant wolf trails go over a road that their kids was using while walking to school. Nope, can't shoot them. Dogs are eaten every year, reading it in a paper doesn't even raise eyebrows anymore. Nope, can't shoot them.
      And all this time, the greens are losing their collective shit on the idea that the wolfs be shot. It's the same defense time and time again: "wolfs don't harm people, they are our very good friends! Lets all be at peace, live and let live!". Being 'so close to the nature', it's weird how detached they are from the realities of animal kingdom....

    I was surrounded by a pack of howling wolves in a remote cabin in Alaska during February. It was pitch black nighttime.
    It was incredibly unnerving. I opened up some fireworks, and stepped out the door and launched a mortar at the sounds. It exploded behind them. I'll never forget their silhouettes running in every direction as purple and silver sparks lit up behind them. I spent the next hour launching everything I had including grips of bottle rockets.
    They wanted nothing to do with it and didnt come back.

    I was in Arizona late at night driving truck. I stopped to use the portajohn at a rest area, and parked a decent distance from it. Behind the portajohn was a hill.
    Half way from my truck i saw the eyes. Dozens of them reflecting my headlights. Naturally, i stopped and started to back up to my rig.
    It was a massive pack of coyotes, bold as brass, moving in on me despite shouts and waving my arms. I got to my rig just as they started to close the circle on me.
    Thing is, with how bold they were, theyd done this before. Absolutely. They knew *exactly* what they were doing and id be dead if i hadnt left my truck running or had turned my lights off. Id never have seen they.

    Apparently wolves are still a danger in parts of the former soviet union. Theres an episode of bald and bankrupt from a few years ago where hes in a remote village in ukraine i believe (pre war of course) and a woman warns him not to wander around alone bc of the wolves. Their numbers are movements are pretty well managed here in the u.s. so theyre not much of a threat. Here in northwest Florida we have coyotes but they're pretty skittish. Theyll nab goats, chickens, and very young calfs and probably small kids given the opportunity which is why so many ppl in the country with livestock keep donkeys. Donkeys will curbstomp the shit out of coyotes that enter their domain.

      My grandparents' place, in the Ozarks, had numerous coyote packs in the area. You would occasionally hear them all howling at the moon from various directions. Had to keep an eye out because they would try to snatch calves and small pets which strayed a little too far. And, of course, keep an eye on the kids. The family would regularly thin the packs whenever they were spotted. Some could be rather brazen, occasionally coming near the farmhouse even in daylight.

Stories like those, as well as these, serve to remind us that this almost spiritual aspect we like to put upon our favorite furry critters is not the loving, empathetic visage that we oftentimes like to delusion ourselves into believing it is. Our relatively safe, comfortable lives in the modern West have allowed us to forget the realities of nature.

    The thing about wolves is that, like dogs, thry're pretty smart, and just like a large dog will not respect you if you show fear to it frequently, wolves will learn to attack humans if they do it succesfuly a few times, and said wolves will then indirectly teach other wolves, because gregarious animals are really good at learning things by mimicking their pack/herd/etc.
    After a few months of attacks with no repercussions, you're gonna get entire packs of wolves that actively hunt humans. This is probably why wolves were hunted to near extinction in some places.
    This also happens with pack of stray dogs. In a town near my home, there was this group of like 5 large hunting dogs who ended up killing one of their handlers after a weird incident, escaped their enclosure, and then rampaged throughout nearby proprierties attacking some workers, killed a pig and loads of chickens. Eventualy a pair of hunters got togheter, tracked them down and shot them.
