Yes, “Wolves in Russia” is very good. In it, you do not see wolves attacking armed people, unless they are lured into doing so. Even then, they break off the attack when a wolf or wolves are killed.

Wolves don’t seem to kill enough people, certainly not enough armed people, to be confident in attacking them.

It may have been a bit different when most people were deliberately disarmed. But, even in Europe and Russia, I do not see records of wolf attacks being successful against a person armed with firearms, and certainly not with modern firearms.

Val Geist survived a pack attack. He said he wasn't sure even full auto would be adequate against a big pack, as they make their attack from behind going for Achilles tendons (which I have seen in coyotes).
