There were valid reasons wolves were hunted to near extinction in many places, the British Isles being one of them, I believe.
My brother and I were looking at a video of a tiger leaping over an elephant’s head to get a guy on top, and I made the comment that “Boy, can you imagine if there were creatures like that with wings that would swoop out of the sky and just snatch you up...”
After an imperceptible pause, we both looked at each other and said in unison “They would be hunted to extinction.”
Many people think that wolves are just big dogs.
Did you see the ‘tourists jumping over the fences because some wolves killed a deer’ story ?
