Well, whatever. I do not want to be meeting lynx, bears or wolves when I
go walking. I am very grateful this country has none left and I like it
that way...

You do know that roe deer are more dangerous to humans than either
lynx or wolves, don't you? And that cattle are more dangerous than
even bears? And that, even off-road, vehicles are more dangerous
than any of those!

When walking, I have been 10x from a European wolf and 5x from a bobcat.
Lovely creatures, but both were so shy that they ran away as soon as
they saw me.
