I mostly agree with you, but don't forget that this story happened about a hundred years ago. People had different mentalities back then, less empathy. > The ranger said humans aren't tasty to wolves. I'm pretty sure it's BS. I'd bet more on wolves being afraid of humans (which is a good survival trait! Here in western Europe they have been hunted to extinction). I saw a YT video where a woman is recording a wolf that didn't see her. When it realize she's there, the wolf is startled and runs away.

Having volunteered at a wolf sanctuary and interacted with a few of the human-friendly ones, they are as skittish as startled deer. Toss a deer leg in the pen and they run for the back fence. Not all though. Some of the “lower ranked” ones realized what was happening and took the opportunity to grab food they usually would have to wait for.
