WolfAlert App

When moving in the forest, a wolf may surprise you. Although a wolf avoids humans, it may approach a dog, regarding it as prey or a representative of its species. For humans, wolves cause a state of fear, so you need to get rid of the wolf quickly, and this app is an excellent tool for that. If by chance you encounter a wolf in the wild, and it does not run away immediately, proceed as follows:

1. Show that you noticed it. Move and speak with a voice that belongs to it. Most likely, the wolf will turn to run away then at the latest.

2. If the wolf does not run away, follow it with your eyes. Don't make eye contact, but still show that you are observing that fear. Shout in a low voice.

3. Keep the wolf in front of you all the time, don't let it behind you (then you also lose eye contact).

4. Make sure the wolf has an escape route. So don't squeeze it into any hole or corner where it can't escape. If you are between e.g. a road, a sled rut, etc. and a wolf in winter, give the wolf a chance to get to the hard ground.

5. Consider whether it is possible that you have gotten between the small puppies and the mother. Try to get out of that position.

6. Back away slowly, keeping your eye on the wolf.
