Wild wolves are generally afraid of people and avoid them, so fatal incidents involving wolves are exceedingly rare. Over the past 100 years in North America, there have been only two cases in which wild wolves reportedly killed a human being. To put this statistic in context, also in North America, bears have killed at least 40 people since 2000 and since 1990, cougars have killed nine. In the United States, domestic dogs kill approximately 30 people every year.
