IG, You didn't seem to consider the part about being threatened by humans. What I read on the link you provided, there were no details. It is likely that the people attacked made some move that the wolf took as a threat to his/hers cubs, pack, or self.

I have been in the woods of central Texas, and have encountered wolves twice. At one distant, they just look at you waiting to see what you will do. Several steps toward them, and the lower their ears, and snarl, as a warning for you to back off. If anyone doesn't have brains enough to recognize these warning signs, they deserve to be bitten.

It's much like shark attacks. When a person goes into ocean water, he is trespassing in the shark's home, and must take the proper precautions, or suffer the consequences. If someone I don't know, goes poking around in my home, he will be lucky if he lives. Animals are no different, and have the same rights in their home, as we have in ours.
