A wolf could have easily killed whoever was handling it. I guess it was just completely resigned to the situation.

While wolves can cause fatal injuries, they rarely do. From 1952 to 2002, there were 8 deaths in Europe + Russia, and 3 in North America. Most wolf attacks occur in south Asia, due to rabies.

The Estonian Union for the Protection of Animals (EUPA) said the wolf had low blood pressure when it arrived at the veterinarian's office, which may have explained its docile nature after the men carried it to their car to warm it up.

Wouldn’t the wolf understand they were trying to help?

It's true that wolves are more intelligent than given credit for and that they're much more afraid of humans than vice versa, but you're not going to befriend a wolf and engage in physical interactions without months of preparation. They treat us as larger predators, and will struggle to avoid being eaten.

Probably not, no. Wild wolves tend to have only negative interactions with humans and thus instinctively consider them a threat regardless of the specific situation..

Remember The Lion Ling? Turns out lions can't sing and have no concept of monarchic rule!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

This is true. It's an established fact that lions adopted a unicameral parliamentary system as far back as 1643.
