You should see what wolves did here in the northern italian hillside. Last wednesday i was hunting roes, i took one eventually but the story about the first one i stalked that morning is a funny one. After a relatively long walk to get downwind, i crawled for more than 80 meters in the muddy and freezed grass to get to a shooting position, at 170 meters from the animal. I lean the rifle on the backpack and i take the safety off, great sight picture, finger on the trigger. She was done. Suddenly she looked left and started running like if she saw the devil. A fee seconds later a huge lone wolf went out from the woods close to me and started running after the roe.
Last saturday i killed a big fallow deer and i went back to the car to put down the rifle and the backpack before starting moving the beast to my car (in Italy when selective hunting we can only gut the animal but we can't cut it into pieces before taking it to the control center). As i walked back to the dead animal, there were some wolves trying to steal it to me. A warning shot and they ran away but they are too much now. On that same day, while hunting, i saw at least 4 (and probably a 5th one) deer bodies eaten by wolves.
I preferred when the number of wolves was reasonable.
