Cant you just have a small nuke or ATLEAST a 50 cal in your back pocket? =)

but yeah, NOTHING is gonna happen if you see a wolf.. its more afraid of you, than you are afraid of him!

[breadisfunny]

It's highly unlikely that it would graze bone and never enter the skull. Besides I wouldn't aim for the head, I'd aim for anything bear.

or you could use a higher caliber weapon like a magnum or a .357

and if its a bear?

You cry :/

A 9mm would do fine, magnum does not refer to the caliber of the round, only the powder behind it. So magnum means it travels faster. A larger caliber (caliber means diameter of the bullet) would be something like a .40 cal or .45 cal. (In this example, a .40 cal is a bullet with the diameter of .40 inches thusly ".40 cal").

For starters Wolves are just a type of wild dog. They are large and can be dangerous, just like a large dog can be dangerous.
Remember Humans made Wolves virtually extinct in Western Europe and nearly extinct in the USA. Canada and Russia still have large numbers of wolves.

Odds are it is an Escaped semi domestic Wolf anyway and it is hunting food in rubbish bins.

Wolves are actually fairly common in the northern US and most of Canada, to the point that there's enough of them for there to be a wolf season again. Sightings of wild packs aren't uncommon if you live in the right areas

As someone who's lived in wooded areas with cougars, bears, wolves coyotes and bobcats for the last decade, I can safely say I've never heard of anyone getting so paranoid over one sighting of one animal. Seriously, everything's going to be ok. If you're that worried, temporarily seal the doggie door and walk your dog out when nature calls.

Really, there's nothing to worry about.

This here sums up the thread. Seriously. I live in the north woods where wolves are not uncommon, but they tend to keep to themselves, especially if they aren't in a large pack. A lone wolf is not really a threat unless it is desperately hungry or if you make it feel threatened. There's no reason to worry yourself so much, its really not going to stalk the streets picking off people like some monster in a movie. You're getting a little too anxious about this.

Or, you send the cat on it.

yesterday? Hardly.

Tho if there is a new case, I still see no reason to worry but will welcome our new heralds of doom that will lead Denmark to conquer the world!

You, sir, are completely delusional. You hit the bear anywhere non-lethal or severely debilitating, and it's gonna smack your head off.

[Gothicshark]

Yeah a lone wolf is little more than a stray. Granted a big stray, but you get my point.

Um wolves are 43–45 kg (95–99 lb) that is big but not all that out of place big, that's fairly close to the size and shape of a German Shepard which sits about 35–43 kilograms (77–95 lb). A Bullmastiff is about 50 to 59 kg (110-130lb). Trust me a pissed of Bullmastiff is a lot more dangerous than a lone Wolf.

Have you ever killed a bear?

poor thing, read the article, it is really sad.

[gr4vitas]

These little bastards were terrorizing a farm near where I live, they had eaten 4 new born calf's (as soon as the calf hits the ground they start tearing into it, they eat the placenta first). The farmer finally called me to put a stop to the killing of his live stock. I gladly obliged to save the lives of the cute little calfy's!!

[Seegtease]

What's the fuss? We've got wolves and cougar all over the place where I live. People don't get mauled all the time. The only real concern is them killing livestock. It's really not a big deal for the most part.

Heck, I had a pet wolf once. Just the family dog, great creature.

there is no recorded event of a wolf ever attacking an adult

[tru]

seen a mountain lion in our field a few weeks back guess i should have loged into mmo-champ and made a post about it and see what i should freak out about...

serious question- Are you 12?
Rabid animals do not live long at all
Its common knowledge that wolves are afraid of humans. You are talking about 1 animal not a pack
Watch less Liam Neeson movies and read up on facts.

Wolves- Plural. A lone wolf wouldn't dare unless it's rabid.
