The problem with everyone talking about NA statistics is most of the people who moved into the forests in the 1800's killed most of the wolves and so using NA as a statistical basis to say why reintro programs are ok and assuage fears of attacks is disingenuous at best. It would be much better to compare to countries/places where wolves have had a sizable population for a long time. Thus, see:
