Wolves may have killed village teacher

The very same thing will start happening here in Washington, there are too many people who don't know enough or will not believe what these wolves are capable of. What then will WDFW have to say about their wolves? We know that defenders of pelosi will not care as they are making the big $$$$ off of their lawsuits and all the people that they swindle money from for the poor little wolves.

Well, It is big news however, notice that at the end of the article it does say, "it would be a first in Alaska if confirmed a wolf kill." That is not an article we would want in the news because its' saying Alaska has a HUGE wolf population and they've basically never had a wolf kill a person.......I think we'd prefer the opposite. We'd want everyone to think the wolf is out to kill every single school kid walking to the bus...

If confirmed a wolf it would be a FIRST in Alaska. Not the publicity we want on the street. Keep it quiet. SSS

Hold on here folks. This kind of discussion I have had before. A Coworker once tried to tell me that there were only 3 recorded cases of Polar Bears killing people, so they weren't much of a danger.  I countered that what that meant was that only 3 attacks were witnessed. I pointed out what my Alaskan born and raised Bush Pilot told me; "The Griz don't want anything to do with you but the Polar Bear? If he sees you he will come eat you, You don't mess around Mike, drop the spray and shoot"

FIRST Wolf kill in Alaska? Or the First one anyone knows about?  There's been a whole lotta trappers-hunters-miners going solo through the Bush over the Centuries, who knows how many ended up in Wolf scat? For a long time I have been reading that "no healthy wolf" has ever attacked humans. Maybe we need to point out the falseness in that?

Mikwaker is right.  I talked to a principal that worked last winter in Galena Alaska.  He flies out every two weeks to the indian villages schools and keeps them on track  One of the villages had a trapper that came up missing last winter but is gone sometimes all day  When he didn't come back they got together and followed his tracks in the snow.  They found his carcass being eaten by wolves.  They looked it over and there were only wolf tracks.  They formed a possee and tracked down the whole pack of 17 wolves and killed the whole bunch.  This is a very remote village in alaska made up by only natives and they don't have a newspaper or any way to inform the public so just take care of problems theirselves.  This principal I talked to said this sort of thing happens all the time in those villages and they could care less if anybody knows because it doesn't matter either way so they deal with the problem theirselves.  They have no law enforcement or game dept. , just theirselves to support.  We never hear about all the casualties unless they are confirmed by govt. hired folks that never get out of the office unless it's to go catch someone doing something they can get  a star in their crown for catching.
