Recently, wolves killed eight children including a woman in Bahraich. According to the district forest department, so far four man-eating wolves have been caught and preparations are underway to catch two more wolves. Techniques like drones and tranquilizers are being used to catch them.
Why is it difficult to catch a wolf?
Wolves have a very strong sense of smell. They can recognize the smell of humans from a distance and become alert. Apart from this, wolves never leave their companions alone. If a companion gets stuck during hunting, the rest of the wolves can reach there to help him. This is due to their ability to recognize smell.
Research on the cleverness of wolves
According to a research, wolves and dogs learn from the events happening around them and pay attention. This is the reason why wolves are smarter than other animals around them. They often prey on children because children are physically weak. Many times children mistake wolves for dogs and get attracted to them and try to play, due to which the wolf preys on them.
Travel and behavior of the wolf
Wolves can travel about 50 kilometers a day with their group. They communicate with their companions through their voice, body language and smell. Wolves are very loyal to their friends and do not leave their companions until they are old. An old wolf also teaches hunting techniques to new wolves.
Tips for dealing with wolves
If you encounter wolves, you should not turn your back and run away. Instead, look them straight in the eye and slowly back off. If you find stones, iron or wood nearby, try to scare the wolves using them. Wolves can also be driven away by making loud noises.
