India Fighting Plague Of Man-Eating Wolves

Since the first killing five months ago, 33 children have been carried off and killed by wolves, according to police figures, and 20 others have been seriously mauled...

Matters are still far from the disaster of 1878, when British officials in this area recorded 624 human killings by wolves. But fear is pervasive. Men stay awake all night, keeping vigil with antique rifles and staves. Mothers keep children from the fields, and infants are kept inside all day.

I read an article somewhere a couple months ago where several hungry wolves caught a sow black bear coming out of winter hibernation, as she exited her winter den she encountered the wolves and jumped up into a pine tree, but didn’t make it very high. Several wolves bit into her hind legs and pulled her back down. Parts of her were scattered about. Deep claw marks about 8 inches long, where she was pulled down were very evident on the tree.
