5 people and some of them armed, five freaking Russiansfor that matter vs a single wolf = 1 dead and four in hospital. WAR wolves !!!
I remembered seeing this on National Geographic about Russia's Toughest Prisons (watch at 19:25): http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xkd4xy ... shortfilms
Same here, but I would rather wrestle an unarmed one than one with chainsaws attached to its paws. I've also read that they are pretty good with knives. Wait, I think I might have misunderstood your statement....
Wild wolves are big dogs, they weigh 200 lbs, like the dogs in the video above. much bigger than most guard dogs. And the Rotweiller or Doverman doesn't compare. I think the natural reaction if about to be attacked, would be to give the dog your arm, so it stays off your neck, but once it's teeth our grinding on your bones, probably the only thing you can do is swing wildly at it's face, I imagine you'd be at an awkward angle and your strikes will be pretty ineffective and with one arm occupied, you won't be able to do much to stop wolf number 2. I think only in a movie, could an unarmed man stop 2 wolfs.
i'd like to know what strategy Severen has in mind? Take it from the top...you step into a clearing and two wolves are lying down, they get up and begin to flank you.... what do you do next?
I love reading these responses And for the record, big cats are WAY different than big dogs. An adolescent mountain lion is way scarier than most animals in america! Strategy to come later tonight!
What a great thread!!! I love this. However, am I the only one who's wondering about zapatoloco's choice of "cruising" locations... Did you get much action there?
Just make a sharp left turn when you pass the huge mossy stump, head into the underbrush and ask for the "snake pit".
