I assume you refer to the wolf killing of a woman recently in alaska. The local natives took to the air en masse and killed over 50 wolves and brought the carcasses to the local biologist for confirmation that none were rabid. The local media blasted the rabies assumption immediately. They were confirmed to be free of rabies and not habituated to humans although that is an elusive term. Wolves in general will not feed on anything that mom didnt teach them to kill. The one exception to that rule , as described by a russian wolf biologist, is that they do learn to take new prey but very slowly. The idea is that they will watch a new prey for as long as three years before attempting to attack it. The key to preventing humans from becoming an item on the menu is outdoor behavior that a wolf would find threatening. Basically if we act like the big predators we are they will leave us alone. IF we begin to think and act like prey we are in danger of becoming a viable prey option for them.
A friend of mine is working currently on a rig very close to where this all happened and the biologist is also a friend of his. I heard about this incident long before the newspapers did.
relative risk from coyotes and dogs is no doubt proportional to the relative numbers of each species in contact with humans.
