    A wolf could have easily killed whoever was handling it. I guess it was just completely resigned to the situation.

      The Estonian Union for the Protection of Animals (EUPA) said the wolf had low blood pressure when it arrived at the veterinarian’s office, which may have explained its docile nature after the men carried it to their car to warm it up.

      While wolves can cause fatal injuries, they rarely do. From 1952 to 2002, there were 8 deaths in Europe + Russia, and 3 in North America. Most wolf attacks occur in south Asia, due to rabies.
