And sometimes a wolf kills a goat, or when they are many, kill a cow. And men make them give up what they kill; but they do not throw a weapon or a stick or a stone at them, but they throw only pebbles. If the wolves do not heed them but refuse to give up what they have killed and eat it, men do not wound them with iron or wood or stones for this is the reason: when the wolf is wounded he sheds blood, and then he dips his tail in the blood and flicks it at him who wounded him. And that man dies if the blood touches him. For this reason they do not throw at the wolves anything but pebbles, because they are afraid of their blood. And so far nobody has ever killed a wolf. And the wolves do not kill men either; but they threaten to kill them. The wolves live in packs, or sometime they go singly. They are of all colors, and their height is like that of a dog. Men say as a proverb, "My blood is the blood of a wolf," that is to say, it kills him who sheds it.
