DMA, If he was attacked by a wolf, he either made a threatening move toward the wolf, it's pack, or it's cubs. If the wolf was diseased, and could not hunt well enough, that too might have caused an attack, but healthy wolves will not attack humans without provocation.

You can't crowd wolves and they are genuinely shy and certain noises such as automatic door lock openers for cars drive them up the wall.

There have been many man wolf encounters over the years but as a rule the wolf is a pretty shy animal.

I see your uncle raised sheep south of Duluth. I had a neighbor with sheep in Port Wing. He never went anyplace without a rifle and there are more then a few buried there also. 10,000 dollar fine didn't matter to him, if he saw them there was lead in the air. The population in Northern WI is getting big enough that there are starting to be quite a few problems. It will only get worse I think. I think it was 3 or 4 bear dogs that the wolves killed up there this year. Bear hunters are protective of their dogs so that will be an issue I'm sure.
