Where the events took place
A news story that cannot fail to arouse concern. In Palombaro, in the province of Chieti, a wolf attacked a dog who was walking on a leash with the owner, a 56-year-old woman. The animal suddenly grabbed the four-legged, despite the lady's attempts to save him, unfortunately she was thrown to the ground and the wolf went into the woods with the dog between his teeth.
Lots of tracks in the woods
Traces of blood were found in the vegetation, so it is not excluded that the pet was devoured. The 56-year-old instead suffered injuries to her knee and wrist. The woods where the wolf hid are part of the Maiella National Park, one of the three national parks of Abruzzo.
Mayor's words
The mayor of Palombaro, Consuelo Di Martino, also arrived on the spot. These were her statements spread via social media: “It is a rather anomalous behavior, therefore, it could be a potentially dangerous specimen. We recommend the utmost caution. If anyone sees him, please contact us ”.
