The “big bad wolf,” as portrayed in popular culture, still has a healthy fear of humans, a new study reveals.
As wolves return to parts of their historical ranges in Europe and North America, there’s growing concern that the predators are becoming less fearful of people. But a recent study from Poland shows that wolves still fully fear people, a finding that extends to other top predators and wildlife elsewhere around the world, where the fear of humans is “ingrained.”
