Wolf attacks on people are very rare.

Not really.

Wolf attacks in Europe were common until they finally got smart and almost wiped out the wolves.

Then wolf attacks became uncommon.

The same thing happened in the states, there was a push to wipe out the dangerous predators and attacks became rare.

Now they are supporting the return of the wolves to these populated areas and the inevitable is happening.

Wolf attacks are on the up swing.

Humans are only at the top of the food chain because of tools.

Never go into wilderness without appropriate tools

If you live in county with bears and wolves and don’t carry a side arm then you are foolish. That is what they are for. Not just for plinking.

Yeah they don’t usually attack and kill humans like that. Maybe she was dead or dying from something else before they got her?

My guess she was scavenged.

This was in Greece. Doubt she was allowed to carry a side arm.

Even at that a side arm will not always be enough to fend off a wolf pack.

Can we set up a vacation fund to support Hillary Clinton going hiking in Greece?
