Wild wolves will not attack humans

What a silly statement!

WOLF ATTACKS ON HUMANS By T. R. Mader, Research Division

Do you just make up stuff on the fly?

No, as your article indicates, my statement is fairly common. The majority of incidents in your article were covered in my previous posts -- wolves having no experience with being hunted by humans, wolves in captivity, wolves attacking children or women.

Even so, the number of reported cases is fewer than the number of people killed by lightening. If wolves were commonly hunted, the number would approach zero.

But again, I made a passing remark about wolves while discussing my main point -- that humans can outrun four legged mammals over a long distance. I really didn't intend to advise chasing down large preditors. Or trying to outsprint them.
