The story reports the wolf as "skinny", and having an injured leg or foot.
I hope no one regards this as anything resembling normal wolf behavior. This incident is irrelevant to the wolf hunting argument, and deserves to be placed in the "weird news" category, not any rational discussion of whether or not wolves should be considered dangerous to people relaxing on beaches in parks.
In the midst of a culture of fear it is vital that we avoid fear mongering. I have visited that park and would do so again without a second's consideration that the small number of wolves in the park might get me.
It would certainly have been a surreal and frightening experience though.
