We have another day with an eerie story. Unlike Red China’s ‘Ghost Cities’ this story concerns real life predators. A ‘Super Pack’ of wolves numbering around 400 terrorized a remote area of Russia, killing livestock and horses at will The '400'. No one has ever seen anything like it because packs usually run in the six or seven number. The authorities believe the intense cold sometimes dropping into the -49 degrees Centigrade range with little food drove wolves from hundreds of other packs together. I know the first reaction to Russia unleashing hunters to confront this ‘Super Pack’ is ‘awwwww… the poor doggies. Now granted, these wolves are beautiful creatures but really… 400 of them in a blood thirsty pack? Imagine 400 wolves howling at night around your little town in the middle of nowhere - great fiction material but scary reality. Definitely time to break out the AK47’s comrades.

Wow. They are beautiful creatures--but that is scary, yes.
And intriguing story fodder...
Sounds like the wolves watched the movie "30 days of night" and decided it was a good plan.
Imagine having to go outside at night for something with that pack running loose, Raine. That would be a story in itself. :)
They have the plot down pretty well, Charles. Man, I don't ever want to know what 400 hungry wolves howling at the moon sounds like. :)
I've already started a story based on that article. :) Great minds. ;)
It's great fodder for a short story, Jordan. That is one very weird tale out of Russia because it's a first as far as humans know. The moment you add automatic weapons and helicopters to the real story I'm afraid our furry protagonists fade off the threat chart pretty fast. :)
Yeah, that would probably happen. Hopefully it won't. Of course in my story they aren't all real wolves. (wg)
'Of course in my story they aren't all real wolves.'
Of course. I'd go paranormal in a heartbeat. :)
