Naw, mine is what they call a "Rag wing", verses the "Spam cans" types.

You do a high alt. roll over and they have way too much time to call on their cell phones and their friends will show up for a photo opt...

Down lower at 100 mph is prety humane, can drop them like a bomb site on the wolves, which feeds the poor starving critters and makes the plane get better fuel economy with a lighter load...'

Mean and Green, what else can you ask for!

Since it's abnormal behavior for wolves to attack humans (We have a pack outside of Soldotna by our house, and I only saw one once close to the house) I wonder if their food source was low where they attacked her

Well sadly, they are going to keep doing the mindless stuff they do all the time, pretend they know what they are doing.

Try to stop hunting so populations run up too high, they eat their food supply then crash/die in mass of starvation. And then ignore the dead animals in the woods...

There was a guy in Canada, last year, I believe, who was chased and killed by wolves. Another one was attacked by a wolf near his kayak, but he managed to grab and "bear-hug" the wolf and stab it a few times with a knife he had in his kayak. The now injured wolf walked away, and later was finished by some Canadian official with a shotgun. The guy was bitten numerous times, and was taken to the hospital.

Another guy in Canada, was bitten several times on the legs by a wolf while he was in his sleeping bag. He was in his tent along a couple of other guys. When the wolf tried to pull him out of his tent, his friends intervened and scared to wolf away.

Then not too far from Fairbanks about three years ago, a lady was charged by a wolf and bitten on the legs several times. She kept on fighting the wolf, and it ran from her. She was lucky enough to survive.

About eight or more years ago, a 7-year old kid in an Alaska village was bitten several times by a wolf. The wolf tried to drag the kid into the brush, but some of the villagers scared the wolf away with rocks and sticks. One of the villagers shot and killed the wolf. The kid survived the attack, but was severely bitten.

Okay, so these are still fairly recent, within 10 years? Maybe their normal prey is not there, so they resort to humans because they are protected and multiplying too fast and no normal food. We were warned when we moved into the house up there not to let the dogs out alone as the wolves would come in and lure them out to the rest of the pack to attack and kill.
