Humans Try to Understand Wolves

A scientific study in Finland has developed human knowledge of why wolves attack dogs. According to the study, this is because the wolves see the dogs as trespassers in their territory.

Wolves mostly attack hunting dogs who hunt with their humans on land where the humans have the right to hunt, with respect to other humans. Wolves do not care about human landownership.

The study is yet another example of human science establishing what wolves, dogs, and many humans already know.
