Coroner Nikos Kifnidis told the Associated Press that both the woman’s thigh bones had been cracked open by bites and large sections of her body are still missing.

Wolf attacks on people are very rare. They have happened.

I thought a a scared wolf, a hungry wolf or a rabid wolf would attack a human.

Hike while armed, for you never know from whence wolves may appear.

NO WOLF HAS EVER ATTACKED A HUMAN...

Yeah. That's usually qualified by "documented attack", a somewhat ambiguous term, but to the best of my knowledge, wolves can't write.
