European v. American Wolves?

[Christory101]

Please correct me if this topic should me moved elsewhere.

Has anyone ever heard the saying that wolves in Europe are more dangerous to humans than ones in North America? I have heard that since in midieval Europe, wolves and humans lived in closer contact than in north america, wolves attacked peoples livestock more ( and even people during wars or famines).

I wonder if this is still true today? Are there any continental europeans ( wolves don't exist in Britain and Ireland) that can commnent about my impression about their continent's wolves?

Europe has had more wolf attacks. Doesn't really make them more dangerous though. Sometimes animals attack other animals.

I'd say they're closely related enough to not be different in terms of aggressiveness. Also a big part of a wolf attacking you is something you did. But honestly, I couldn't tell you much.

Also, this should probably be in General.

Random topic, but fuck it I'll bite.

Wolves are cowards. When times are hard they'll go for rabbits and sick deer, when times are good they'll raid livestock farms again and again as it's reliable, always in the same place, and accessible. They rarely attack people as they lack the balls, especially if on their own, and usually a fuckoff loud noise is enough to scare the little wankers off. The number of 'attacks' in Europe are higher possibly due to the fact that the land is denser, and everything is closer together compared to America. More farms closer together mean more wolves trying to get in on delishus sheeps. That sounded stupid, but I hope you know what I mean.

In terms of aggression, wolves is wolves the same over. They're all pussies. For some reason there there's been talks of re-introducing small populations of wolves or lynxes into the UK, but I'm pretty sure it's one or the other; they want to introduce a controlled population of a medium-sized predator back into the UK to maintain a more natural solution to pest control (overpops of sika deer, muntjacs, Chinese waters and rabbits). I hope they go with lynxes as wolves annoy the shit out of me. Does it show?
