I spend time with my husky everyday there lot of land to cover here. lol :lol: I did that when I work at BestBuy for little while, jump on a computer and do something.

Well I would go out, but I can't leave my pup and if I go they come with me. Even so my car is starting to show wear and gas is to high for me. I spend $30 each time I go to town :( ahh and it's still 4cly 3.0L Porsche 944s 87's with 944s2 motor and upgrade to a HP 968 turbo motor.

Well g2g again puppy wants to play ball, anyone want to buy a log home? I'm planing to move out and live closer to town ~grins~ already put $69,000 on very small bit of land that only 10 mins outside town.

starfoxacefox, I think you should spend less time on your computer and more time working on grammar and vocabulary. I can barely understand your posts - it's not just Sepalla.

I agree with Aslan, wolves are scared of humans. They don't like to be near us.

eyeroll.gif I wish that was true, well to prove that I think wolves are not scared of human. I'm going to get my camera and takes some photo of the pack that lives up here. I wont use my telephoto lens, just a good old 40-80mm. I will get really close, can't wait until I'm part of pack welcome.gif lol ok maybe not part of the pack, but it's fun to dream.

Well I got nothing else to say here ~yawns~ Just love the world you live in, if you get killed by wolf oh well too bad. If you kill a wolf, I like to call it "Human Hunt" ~winks~

^ The wolves are probably used to your presence, starfacefox.

As evidence, it is similar with the moorhens at the landfill site near our village. Moorhens in the wild will fly away at the sight of a human, whereas these will just walk out infront of the waste lorries. If wolves are used to seeing and hearing humans it will just become part of their daily routine. That doesn't mean you're part of their pack you're just part of their surroundings.

If you went to Alaska and wandered through a forest, like the moorhens, the wolves are more likely to avoid you.

Hm, kill or get killed. But really, this is getting off topic, sorta.

Wolves are killers, neither if you like it or not. And before you say that wolves would never attack, there has been a report of a healthy wolf attacking a lady. However, I am sure it's pretty rare for a wolf attack, however.

And yes, wolves are not gentle pets. Their wild animals, killers, and they should be respected for what they do, and how they act.

Wolves are killers-they kill their prey to survive.

But they certainly do not kill for pleasure.

It has been a widespread misconcpetion that wolves are dangerous-partly because no one knew anything about them. And this has lead to the killings of millions of them. But more and more people are learning about them and beginning to understand them. The problem is, it may be too , late, since wolves are endangered.

There have been events were wolves attack innocent people. But, it is mostly when they wander into the forest, onto wolves' territory. What business do you have to go on their territory? None. That's why they attack. They think you are trying to hurt them.

Wolves attack only if threatened.

Movies often stereotype wolves as killers, even when it has been proven again and again that they are not. As an example, There is a documentary, "Living With Wolves", where two people live alongside wolves and photograph them. They even become close friends, like a person with a pet. The people were never hurt in the documentary.

The answer is both yes and no;

Yes because they kill for food

No because they don't attack without a reason.

Hopefully that cleared that up for you- and mods, if you really think there might be a war over this lock the topic.

This sort of thing always annoys me. NO, wolves are NOT killers! Wolves have never been killers, humans have made them killers in things like fairy tales. I haven't a clue why they chose wolves! There has hardly been any attacks by wolves, and the only few were by wovles that had gone slightly mad. Wolves are shy animals. Full stop. Unless you were doing something stupid, something you are not meant to, a wolf would NEVER attack you.

Because we are humans. Humans make stories up.. rumours up. I mean, think of all the myths and stories you've heard over time - how many of those are true? People do it to scare other people. Usually when they are scared themselves.

Just remember, as Balto Wolfdog said, wolves are not friendly pets. They are wild animals. [/i]

Well, since wolves kill other animals for food (and kill the occasional fox or coyote in order to protect their food), wouldn't that TECHNICALLY make them killers?

I think the implication in the original statement refers to their capacity to kill humans. Killing their normal prey to eat it makes them predators. The useage of the word "killer" usually connotes a murderous, negative type. Maneater. Or, in the case of a human being, a murderer (or one who commits manslaughter).

If that was NOT the intent of the original post, well, the useage is still wrong. The correct connotation for what a wolf does is "predator".

Yes wolves are killers, but so are we. Were worse then wolves, wolves kill for food, so do we, but we also kill animals for the "sport of it", something that sickens me. My dad who has never been a fan of animals, called wolves beautiful creatures. Highly intelligent and just amazing to watch, they are killers in the sense that if they did not, they would die. So the answer is yes, but so are most creatures.

Kill, or be killed. =3

I like that saying now, aheh, joking.
Ain't we all just killers? We all fight sometime in our life, and we all killed in our life. =3 I mean, we DID kill that poor little bug on the ground, yes?

Okay, enough of my 'joking-self'.

=) I never dealt with wolves, and so I can't say much. Um, there has been reports of healthy wolf attacks in other areas, but I never ever heared of a wolf killing a human.. ever. Not around here, or in any other areas.
