Voted 10/10 | Thanks for updating the wolf bit. Your original misconception is not at all unusual: because of the legends and lore surrounding wolves, it's a common perception that the animal has been responsible over the years for many human fatilities. The reality is that there is only one (!) documented case of a wolf-caused fatality--that occurring relatively recently, a couple years ago in BC, Canada, with the cause being traced back to the unusual circumstance of campers having fed the wolf--a loner, and not part of a pack--which had in turn lost all fear of humans, and (no doubt) had begun looking on any campsite as its own personal food source. Wolves are an amazing and interesting wild animal, and certainly are fierce and lethal enough when in pursuit of game, but they simply don't bother people.
