Wie verhält man sich richtig bei einer Begegnung mit einem Wolf?
Immer wieder hört man von Begegnungen mit Wölfen in freier Natur. Wie verhält man sich richtig, um die Situation zu entspannen?

Und würden auch mehrere am Tag fressen und könnten davon als Hauptnahrung leben? Die meisten Tiere, von denen man es meint, wie Haie zum Beispiel jagen ja eigentlich keine Menschen wirklich.
Hallo zsm, Ich habe 2 Wellensittiche und der eine hat relativ lange krallen, verfängt sich aber eigentlich nie. Eine Bekannte (Tierärztin) meinte, dass man es eigentlich nicht machen muss und dass es unnötiger Stress für die Wellis sei. Trotzdem mache ich mir ein wenig Sorgen, dass er sich irgendwann mal in einem Seil oder ähnlichem…
Hallo, ich finde Füchse wahnsinnig cute und würde gerne mal welche sehen. Mir wäre aber wichtig, dass es keine Füchse in Zoos oder in Gefangenschaft sind und das ich sie in der Natur nirgendwo bei störe. Gibt es da Führungen von Experten oder so? Liebe Grüße
Mich interessiert die Meinung der Leute über Bäume.
Weinbergschnecken (Helix pomatia) gelten ja als geschützt. Bezieht sich dies auf das (kommerziell orientierte) Sammeln von Weinbergschnecken, z.B. um sie zu verzehren, oder auch auf die Entnahme von einzelnen Tieren, um sie z.B. zu Hause in einem Terrarium zu halten?

As a rule, wolves are shy, probably referring to the video where the woman screamed hysterically around. There the wolf only complained, and there was no danger from the wolf rather from the person in the video;)
But with such wolf encounters you have to behave calmly, don’t run, don’t scream, best you continue your walk or turn around and go home. If he doesn’t cut you off, you should go in the direction where the wolf isn’t.
Very good
Thanks for your compliment 😉.
Good answers!
Unfortunately you find some hahnebüchne Tips/Ideas from so many others.
Since young animals are still “forged” by curiosity and suspicion, sometimes their human shyness, you will normally get to face more growing wolves (6 – 24 months). But that’s why it’s still “interesting” (creaming, waving with the arms, etc.), not so ideal for shying.
With its own attack with pepper spray or stones, you can provoke an aggressive counter-reaction… Anyone who wants to feel safer can stick to a walking stick or umbrella. As long as you don’t throw it, no one (also the wolf) can do something because no wolf comes so close. Hunters are a lot more in the forest, but rarely meet wolves. These people with the loud dangerous “sticks” (guns) recognize and avoid a wolf especially and this is not only in regions (e.g. Scandinavia, Poland), where wolves are also hunted or correspondingly buried.
Wolves are cowards, and dangers are better off. Only when/where there are not enough “light” prey and fleeing animals, they form large packs and then hunt “fleet prey”. Weiry animals usually do not flee, but attack themselves, which is why the herd protection also works better by aggressive stallions, donkeys, bulls, rams or dogs, than by fences.
Which is why wolves are always seen at the Gassi: A single strange “Canis Lupus” (also “familiaris” -> dog) is particularly interesting and can be mistrusted, avoided, attacked, chased, killed or rewritten (depending on chances of success, situation, age, density and season). For wolves, humans and dogs (on a short leash!) form a “dangerous unit”, which is why an escape distance is maintained. Also with us are most wolf visions, free-running dogs. In the forest, the dog belongs to a leash, no matter how good you think that your own four-legged friend hears, the roe is still afraid and also wildsau doesn’t matter! And meeting a red with freshlings is much more likely and dangerous than wolf, lynx & co.
Yes there are always fewer shy wolves, because unfortunately also wolf puppies are very susceptible to positive amplifiers (such as food, attention and claws). And then wolf puppies, compared to many dog puppies, usually rather sub-nourished out, which they are not so easy round and fat, but only grow faster with more to eat. Where there are established packs, there are also often tourism through “wolf romantics” (or young stupid soldiers) or (hobby-)animal filmers and when they feed the puppies or even play with them, there are new “problem wolves” again!

I think it’s good you use for wolves:)
If I met a wolf despite the very low probability, I would look.
If possible take photos.
He probably saw me a lot earlier and diluted.
The hint with the dog of @Flauschy is important: have dog – anyway – under control, keep on the leash…
As a rule, wolves are shy and avoid people.
Here and there the use of pepper spray is recommended in the “conflict case”.
No, don’t you ever use this or do you want to be regarded as an aggressor vol Wolf?? You know what?
A wolf never approaches you without reason, and when you see a wolf it is 99% a weep even if it doesn’t look like one since it is already extremely big. They’re just approaching you when you’re screaming stupid movements or don’t let them move. And even then a wolf won’t attack you. You better worry about Dobermann, Rottweiler and Co who are in the freewheel are dangerous if they are not educated, not the wolf.
I love all animals – whether wild or domestic -. And I also have a lot left for wolves. But if one approaches me immediately, does not show a barn and I have a pepper spray with me, then the good animal gets the full charge. What should I wait for? That I’m being sniffed that the wolf notices “Holla, funny being there. – the animal is a harmless creature. The next time, maybe a toddler’s turn – maybe my – or your?
The study “The fear of wolves: A review of wolf attacks on humans” published by the Norwegian Institute for Natural Research (NINA) in 2002 provides comprehensive information on the danger potential of wolves. In it, reports on wolf attacks on people and their causes were collected and evaluated in Scandinavia, Central Europe, Asia and North America. Thus, attacks of wolves on people are very rare. In the past, there were few cases where healthy wolves attacked or even killed a person. Wolf attacks on people can be traced back to three causes: rabies, provocation and feed conditioning.
I referred this word to your allegation, which other things do not belong to me anymore. And what does it have to do with that the wolf in the animal world is the top predator?? The wolf would never approach a human being without reason, even if the human being makes a fool of himself. 99% of the wolves that you see are young animals, if you are interested in what are weep now, they come closer to you and often complain as in some videos. But they wouldn’t do anything to you. Great that you involve the whole world, but I’m talking about Germany….
First of all: speak nicely, thank you. Bullshit is not very respectful.
In contrast to you, I don’t see the wolf as a top predictor raised any suspicion.
I now come to the point that in the 1:1 human life goes before wolf life (here some interesting documented cases: https://www.wolfcenter.de/ueber-uns-den-wolf/unsere-vision/humane-in-risk/#:~:text=1.603%20t%C3%B6some%20f%C3%BCr%20people,an%20Tollwut%20sick%20W%C3%B6lfe%20sight
Any kind of aggressive behavior towards the wolf makes you more interesting that is when you spray pepper spray on his face. He won’t go any further, but many people still have to learn. Not everything in the internet is true because where else you have such a bullshit….
I doubt you have to do something to relax the situation. Wolves are likely to be a bit shy and to look for the wideness of people.
No and yes, you never see the parents. You only see the young puppies, but people who have no idea think that they are adult wolves. Since they already have 70 cm of shoulder height.
My mother had seen a pack about four months ago. She meant those. They looked strong after it. Pretty big too. A short time later, it was also reported in the media that a pack is going around in the surrounding area. She also lives very deeply in the woods.
She stayed as solidified at that time and then quickly left. But they just looked and went away.
To this day, she has a trauma. According to her, this was one of the worst experiences in her life.
Stay standing or withdraw slowly. If the wolf doesn’t get up, shout or smile. If you’re on the way with a dog, call the dog and line it up.
A dog owner told me she met a wolf with her dog. The wolf has withdrawn from its own.
Running away could be counterproductive, right?
Don’t yell wild about you. Simply let wild animals straight wolves draw their paths, there are 99% young animals even if they come closer to you they are very interested and appease.
Yeah, I wouldn’t do that. A wolf is in any case faster than you and at least in the dog is triggered by rapid movement of the hunting drive. The wolf will be like that.
Well shouting and clapping is not recommended, that should always be the last thing you do. Then, as you draw attention to you, and the wolf is likely to come even closer as he is interested in your action.
As long as the wolf doesn’t notice people, you don’t scream around and hope he’s just going on.
But Wolfsberater recommend the behavior as soon as the wolf approaches, e.g. here https://www.landundforst.de/niedersachsen/ratgeber-so-verhalten-wolfsbegegnungen-real-564920 or here also if you feel uncomfortable near the wolf: https://www.umwelt.niedersachsen.de/startseite/im_fokus/der_wolf_in_niedersachsen/verhalten-bei-einer-wolfsbegegnung-199570.html
Yes, unfortunately:(
Yes fits, but many keep spreading false information like that with pepper spray.
Yes I talked about this hysterical scream, and later in the video he says that we should behave so calmly. Did it work with him too, why should it not work with other people then it comes up because wolf does not come to you for a reason.
You seem to have entered the subject very deeply. I’ve just gogled and found some sources that provide the same information. Your information will be correct.
He tells himself in his video that screaming is okay (about 2:25) but you shouldn’t make your own dog crazy. And that is, of course, completely understandable that your own dog becomes cocourrent when he barks. At 7:38 it is mentioned again that – when you scream – you scream normally but don’t shout hysterically. And so far it should be possible to think that one behaves calmly and inconspicuously if one is not noticed by the wolf.
I didn’t get to see why Christian Berge was controversial.
I support his work for wolves and what he does for them. I don’t care what he made for mistakes in the future.
What’s wrong with the knowledge of wolves and 20 years of experience about it?
So you’d rather trust people who haven’t had any Wolf’s encounter in their lives and have their knowledge out of 4 hands? As a man who has dealt with it for 20 years and wants to protect these animals, and owns 15 wolfdogs himself. Sorry, but that doesn’t make any sense.
Christian Berge is not incontroversy either. 😉
It is true that you should see information on the Internet critically, but I rather trust the information of the Federal Ministry of Nature and the Environment as the information of an individual. But with high probability, we both will not meet a wolf.
Here the link to the video
https://youtu.be/IL6LaPKpDAM
Yeah, but we’ve seen something screaming in that woman’s video. If I met a wolf with my dogs in the forest, I would keep my dogs short and change direction. If the wolf would follow me, I wouldn’t yell as it only attracts more attention to you. You should never spray the wolf pepper spray into the face, not everything in the internet is always right. By the way, I take my statements from a Wolf Schützer who has been dealing with wolves for decades and holds 5 wolfhunde himself, “Christian Berge” is his name.
I also think that by fleeing the hunting drive could be triggered.
