Police Confirm Woman Killed by Animals in Alaska

Headline is misleading. It stated '..likely killed by animals'. When the coroners report comes out, or they have specifically identified the killing as done by wolves, everyone just speculates. You have PETA on one side, and an 'eye for an eye' on the other. Can you say for certain that she did not die of natural causes and the wolves then fed off her? Can you say for certain that she may have fallen, or injured herself while running, and the wolves, being opportunists, saw an injured being/animal and sought it out as a food source? I go hunting, and eat the food we hunt and kill. I don't go out every day, it's just 2-3 times a year. Wolves breed according to their lifestyle: meaning if they feel threatened, be it for lack of food, or pressure from hunters, they will reproduce at a faster rate than normal. fssalaska...was your dog an anklebiter, or one of substance? Maybe you should have been watching your dog a bit closer.

Why not say Police Confirm Woman Killed by a Pack of Wolves in Alaska !!!!!!!!! I know everyone's afraid of making the environmentalist people angry, but this woman was killed by a pack of wolves not random animals in Alaska. All of the environmentalist that will protect God's majestic creature the Wolf 99 % have never lived with one eating their dog in their yard, I have ! I truthfully think and not only because of this incident there have been hundreds of wolf attacks on pets here in Alaska in the last say 10 years or so and quite a few attacks on humans nonfatal that never seem to make the news for some reason. God put Wolves here for a reason, to thin out the sick and dying and overpopulated animals but now with humans doing so much hunting there is definitely an overabundance of Wolves in Alaska. So to all you animal activists that gripe and moan every time you hear about Alaska Fish and game doing aerial hunts and sometimes paying bounties on wolf pelts, please just take a moment and realize that in your California condo you might have no clue why we have to do such things. And then shut up and mind your own business !

One fact of note is 'Habituated Wolves' attack, injure and kill people. 4 Habituated wolves killed and fed upon Kenyon Carnegie in Saskatchewan 2005. Now bold, aggressive, habituated wolves have killed this lady. I would also bet these 3 wolves fed upon her also. These wolves viewed Ms Berner as prey. In this investigation the results will show these wolves have a past history of aggression and habituation. What is a habituated wolf or wolves? They are bold and aggressive and lack an avoidance response to humans. They seek out humans and human use areas and are not like true wild wolves in the wilderness who flee upon site of scent of man. Food conditioning is one contributor to habituation. This type of wolf is flawed and once documented "habituated" towards humans and human use areas they should be removed. If not there will be more human fatalities from wolf attacks. I think the liability rest with the overseeing agencies governing wolves. Their failure to act to remove documented habituated wolves leave them wide open to lawsuits. Jess Carey
