Wolves seen hunting European bison in rare camera-trap recording

Europe’s largest land animal, the bison, is thought to be relatively unthreatened by predators, but footage from Białowieża Primaeval Forest in Poland shows it does face attacks from wolves.

Wolves are making a comeback in many parts of Europe

Deep in the Polish wilderness, a camera trap has captured a pack of wolves hunting down a juvenile bison.

The rare footage suggests that in Europe, bison might be on the menu for wolves more commonly than previously thought.

“My mind was blown,” says Robin Wijnands at the Polish Academy of Sciences. “I was really surprised because I really didn’t expect wolves to hunt bison, especially when there are so many other prey available in the forest.”

These attacks happened after the first humans – Adam and Eve  - rebelled after what God  said in Genesis 3 about the fall of man. Animals also begin to kill each other.

Dogs understand our body language

Dogs were meant to be man’s best friend. They were not originally wolves, as the evolutionists suppose but were meant to be our companions. Now, scientist have made research on how dogs can understand our thoughts and words.    

“Scientists have known for more than 2 decades that dogs understand the logic behind a surprisingly complex gesture: When we point at something, we want them to look at it. That insight eludes our closest relatives – according to evolution - ,  chimpanzees, and helps our canine companions bond with us.”

Evolutionists Think That Natural Selection Is Forming A New Species of Himalayan Wolves

Evolutionist think that natural selection takes thousands of years for form new species, However, the real world shows that it is faster than that.

Now, it seems that high-altitude genes could turn Himalayan wolves into a new species.

The study is about the faeces of the wolves, which were sequenced by scientists

Together, these findings suggest the high-living wolf should be considered a distinct species—or at least as an “evolutionary significant unit,” the researchers write. And they support previous research suggesting these little-studied canids are the oldest lineage of modern wolves, having diverged from other wolves between 630,000 to 800,000 years ago.

High-altitude genes could turn Himalayan wolves into a new species, They showed that Himalayan wolves carry specialized genes that help them overcome a lack of oxygen, including ones that strengthen the heart and boost the delivery of oxygen through the blood.

This could be due to the animal’s hidden genetic disposition that gives it the energy to move in high attitudes.
