This is not uncommon in areas where wolves become accustomed to scavenging human corpses - which only really happens during war or famine. I was just hearing about this in the context of early modern French wolf attacks.
Like the one where 400 wolves invaded Paris?

Do note the primary weapon of that fight was “the pointy stick”, and not “152mm artillery”.
The idea of using artillery against wolves is hilarious to me.

That is a scary thought, that wolves are adapting to warfare conditions and are learning the battlefield.
If wolves in the region start seeing humans as a food source, I doubt they would take on a whole battalion, but Injuries on the battlefield will be that much more dangerous.
As hunter packs see any weakness as an exploit for food.
Wolves adapting to humans is how we got dogs. Maybe we’ll get something even cooler this time. (Though that would be hard because dogs are pretty damn cool.)
African dogs adapting to hunt beside humans is how we got dogs.
Wolves hunting humans is how you get man eating wolves.
If only there was a breed of dog that we could use to control the wolf population. Maybe something in the hound category, native to the country in need. Some sort of Russian wolf hound.
I read ‘large wolf pack from Ukraine’ and instantly thought ‘who gave Ukraine a bunch of submarines’?
Same here I was like FINALLY

I have no idea when the helmet-flork gained cat-ears though
Thank you for the sauce. Where raccoon, tho
The turtle is a refference to the trench turtle, who just kinda chilled out in a Ukrainian trench for a bit becoming a well known figure and meme in the Ukrainian telegram channels.
I assume the others are similar references, perhaps the cat ears have to do with the provenance of anime iconography used by the Ukrainians (cat-girl army) but I really couldn’t speak to the rest
What the flork do you mean?
The shark is from the sinking of the Moscow I believe, implying sharks ate the sailors aboard.
“Carrion”
FFS, they were people, and your own soldiers Russia.This is likely automatic translation, but I would guess that there was nothing respectful in the first place
Well, it’s simple really…
- there are no fallen russians in ba sing se
- following from 1) they must all be Ukrainians and thus must not be paid respect even in death
So now they’ve enlisted a werewolf pack… Almost feel sorry for the Russians at this point lol.
Almost, but not quite.

There was an episode of Love, Death and Robots about this, I think

Beast of Gevaudan, please call your office.
I read this news a couple days ago, and was wondering how soon the wolf would get his cap! Very pleased.
