The dumb victim should have known better than to act old, sick, or disabled while sleeping. He was just asking to be attacked. They'll probably arrest the guy.

Up close and personal with nature,just like they wanted to experience.
Likely all the campers were doing the nightly wolf howl with the park staff earlier in the evening.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

The wolf probably thought Banff was a sanctuary for wolves where he could go and disregard local laws and regulations because he doesn't speak the language. In an attempt to curb future attacks, campers will henceforth be forbidden from having legs.

The USFWS will not classify this as a documented wolf attack because:

1. Did not result in fatality
2. The specific individual wolf committing the alleged attack has not been identified.
3. It will not be demonstrated that the specific wolf that committed the act had never been held in captivity.

Ergo, according to the USFWS there still we be no documented case of there EVER having been an attack on a human from a wild wolf.

I read this article on MSN and it stated there were 60,000 wolves in Canada and even more than that in Russia. I didn't know there were that many.

USFWS released a statement... "What wolf?"
