Lets see, he knew about the wolves chasing the two men! But he goes for a walk alone, sort of like taking a walk in a Wolf’s den isn’t it. Where was his gun and how many shots did he get off?? If the answer is none, he committed self inflected murder.
The guy was definitely an idiot going out alone and unarmed after the previous incident but it shows that wolves will attack and kill people under certain conditions.
The Fish and Game spokespersons who try to calm people by saying it’s very rare that wolves and cougars attack humans really light my fire because that one person that is attacked and killed is very dead. When the numbers of those animals become too many for their habitat they live closer to man and lose their fear of us thereby becoming a threat.
