The Ottoman forces were attacked by wolves when they were fleeing the Carpathian mountains after the battle of sarikamish. If you aren't already planning on including that, that might be a good story for part 2
Edit: It was the Caucus mountains, not the Carpathian mountains. My bad!
Much obliged! I had not heard about that one. I’ll see how I can work it in. Thanks Eric
@@WartimeStories there is also the story of Russian and german/german and American (opposing forces in WW1 OR WW2) needing to band together and eradicate the local wolves that accounted for more killings than the human on human fighting between those groups.
@@WartimeStories This was great, thanks! Can't wait for Part 2 :-)
@@cleoharper1842 me too! Can't wait!
Is there a book on that?
Just to give an added perspective. I did wolf dog rescue for some years and had up to five of my own personnel wolf dogs ranging in content from 20% to 80+% wolf. When you live with them, sleep next to them and are one of their pack, you are indeed well protected and yes, loved deeply by them also. While they do take very special handling and containment they are amazing animals to share life with. Only a fool would ever lose sight of the fact that they are still wolves though. The difference and depth they show compared to a domestic dog gives you a very clear view of how weak both in body and mind the toughest of domestic dogs are. It's no wonder to me that so many people for thousands of years have considered them a mystical being. I've also see the incredible fear and hatred some people have for them despite having no experience with them, or even ever being around them. I live where wolves can indeed be and are, but there's also mountain lions, bears, moose and a whole assortment of animals that can end you. I don't fear that but I do have deep respect, keen awareness and stay well armed. The strongest fitest of men, looks and moves like an uncoordinated wounded animal to most of the above mentioned.
I sincerely appreciate this. Thanks for taking the time to share this Montana.
Ultimately, I hope my opening line "the very Earth we live on has been just as dangerous...if it is not respected" serves to address this very sentiment. Wolves are not something to be feared, but rather to be respected, both as a predator and for their beauty. As I say, we remarkably have much in common with them.
The author of the story in this episode. Ernest Seton, is certainly worth mentioning. He spent much of his formative years in the Canadian wilderness and turned his experiences into a number of stories which, from the animal's perspective, demonstrated a sincere understanding of their nature. He also co-founded the Boy Scouts. Some of his stories about North American wolves were acquired as he spent time hunting them in the Southwest US in the late 19th Century. I would presume his hunting was intended for the preservation of wolves as much as humans--since both wished to reside in the same area. And yet, his stories characterized wolves (and other predators) not as evil, but as "compassionate, individualistic beings." He clearly respected them. I have likewise seen similar sentiments in books I've read, such as Gary Paulsen's "Hatchet" series.
@@WartimeStories Hey thanks for taking the time to write such a kind reply. I did very much like the realistic, sensible and compassionate approach you took right away. As I'm sure Ernest Seton found, you can't spend time around them, even at a distance without seeing how powerful they are in both their ability to survive and their deep love of their own packs/families. I would say your right, that we should have much in common with them. That good Men and Women should strive to share that kind of fierceness and passion for their families. On the Military side, I'm a Morgan horseman. Morgans are the oldest true American horse breed and were also bred and used as Cavalry horses by the US government. They served in every war fought in the US from the Civil to the Second world war. I often say when I ride my Morgan, I'm riding a part of history. I always look forward to your content and enjoyed being in your live stream. All the very best to you, your family and may your channel continue to grow and you prosper.
I prefer the term Lone Wolf to Mountain Hermit. It always sounded more... dignified.
As a Scout, (Life) I never saw proper Wolves here in Ohio, even in remote hill-country. Only Cayotes, & Grassmen. (Could have been a huge hairy hunter tho, I didn't get a good look & I wasn't about to chase something the size of a upright bear. We do not have bears here in Ohio)
That being said, we always spoke about 'what to do if x attacks'. Moose = Get out of Reach & don't make eye-contact.
Bear = Stay alert, because they can smell you for leagues away down-wind. In bear country, you NEED to be armed. Aim for the legs & RUN if you are charged. Get out of reach, in a tree if only available but Bears can wait for 4+ days (especially if you angered it or it's cubs) for you to fall out of a tree.
Wolves = Depends, but if it's more then 10+ you need to kill yourself. Save your last bullet for yourself. You may be able to shove your fist PERFECTLY into it's mouth (to avoid a forearm or elbow savaging) & grab it's tongue while punching it in the neck or balls (if it's male) but you will NOT be able to have any meaningful fight against more then 1 Proper Alpha Hunting Wolf. If you can't get out of reach, you're going to be Wolf Food.
(IMHO, You can scare away most animals (especially with a .44 or .45) but Racoons were my worst fear. Rabies shots are very painful & you have to get them if you get bitten ONCE by a curious / aggressive Racoon. I would feed a Racoon rather then fight it, I'm that freaked by them. I've never had a pack of wolves try to get into my tent but I have had a pack of +10 Racoons try to paw/bite into my tent walls. I was imagining Zombie Racoons, btw)
Also: I'm a dog person. My 1st dog lived to be 18.5. Current is probably 12. (Both small intelligent dogs)
I Subscribe to Wolf Conservation Center in South Salem, NY & Takis Shelter (Man in Crete-Kydonia who shelters 500 dogs humanely. Takis might be the best Human in History. Dog Superman) & have over 250+ Happy Dog Rescue Videos in my PL.
Dogs were put here to teach Humans how to live, IMHO. Wolves, are Dogs before they started hanging around our garbage-dumps looking for free food.
In Zoroastrianism, it was considered an EXTREME SIN to not help / feed an injured Dog found on Your land.
& a DOUBLE-EXTREME SIN not to shelter / feed a pregnant Mother Dog found on Your land.
1 Millennium BCE we knew this!
It makes me so mad when people just think these animals are worthless and should be killed.. sure, they are dangerous and might eat a few livestock but nature is more complex than a few lost lives or livestock. We need to learn to live with nature, not destroy it.
It's honestly amazing how a single guy is giving us such amazing content delivered on a silver platter. Hat's off to you, Luke
I can't wait for Australians Against Emus episode! A.A.E!
It was an emu cull gone sideways hardly a thrilling story
@@barrywilkinson8470 it's a humorous story about the ineptitude of the Australian government, not everything has to be "thrilling" or morbid
@@thebible4484 exactly-and the aussies are still a little butthurt about getting beaten by a bunch of birds 🤣
And call it, when humans waged war on Dinosaurs.
Seriously love that, gets better that Australia lost
April Fool's 2022
The story of Courtaud’s wolf pack and the Parisians would make an excellent film. Call it The Wolf King. 💂 🐺
Evidently, the Parisians actually did call him by that very title. Or at least, the King Wolf or some similar variant.
Hope it isn't given too many liberties. Really don't trust Hollywood much.
Oh, and it better be a traditionally animated film so to avoid the uncanny valley effects of CGI.
@@michaelandreipalon359 CGI animals tend to be pretty good, it’s mostly just CGI people that are affected by the uncanny valley. and Sonic, but he doesn’t count
@@spartangaming1352 True.
I just have a bias for traditional animation, that's all.
I have a friend living in alaska that is an avid Hunter. He’s told me multiple times that while out in the wilderness the wolves tend to keep tabs on people and always know where they are at. He said you’ll only catch a glimpse but they’re always there and always watching. He said looking at one is not so much scary as it is ethereal, like seeing a spirit among the trees. Apparently looking into their eyes is like looking at a person and their intelligence is blatantly apparent.
Years late but I too live in Alaska, and I work for the pipeline above the arctic circle where there are no trees. They are indeed always around, and you definitely rarely see them. But sometimes they just don't seem to care. I recently saw the whole pack (about 8) that lives in my valley where I work, just chilling next to the road. The first time I saw one up close two of them were trotting along the road single file, maybe 10 feet away and I was driving the opposite direction. It was mid winter, foggy, and dusk. As we passed each other, I made eye contact with the lead wolf. Large and black. The look on his face was one of complete indifference. Had no fear of me. And looking into his eyes was spiritual. I still get goosebumps every time I think about it.
Foxes are just as smart...
The fact that wolves are smart enough to funnel prey into cold waters after exhausting by chase - just to watch them drown & eat them downstream is respectable.
@@HyperKadaj foxes are smart but have absolutely no applicable comparison to the complexities of pack coordination
Technically we are all spirits locked in different kinds of bodies
Bare hands!!! Man give the brave dude a medal.
Only in Russia haha
Yeah that shits impressive
Will you guys do an episode on the incident on Ramree Island where Japanese soldiers were slaughtered by Saltwater Crocodiles? It’s an interesting and horrifying account that would definitely make a great addition to the Wartime Stories roster 👍
I think they already mentioned that event in the Nanjing episode in Bedtime Stories.
@@antoniojosetorrente559 oh yeah I remember that but it would be great if they did a full episode on it, rather than just a mention
I agree. Might make for another full episode.
Cool that you guys are interested in historical events. If you can pay these guys something I bet it would help. The Japanese got chomped up but good trying to withdraw into the jungle if I recall the event.
The same saltwater croc nightmare horror happened in the WW2 Papua New Guinea Buna/Gona/Wewak campaign amongst the mangroves and swamps in late 44' 45'. My Aussie Digger father was in the 6th Div in that fight and he and his mates witnessed a failed Japanese night attack into Austrailian and Yank lines across a flooded river..a dark muddied river and fetid humid mangrove loaded to the teeth with 15' and 20' Crocs. My father and his younger brother were in this same fight,but from different battalions..and as kids they told us some harrowing and nightmarish stories of the horrifying screams and thrashings as the crocs took out most of the Japanese troops over several long hours of blood and death. He said they,my uncle and father,and their mates who survived the fight, never could quite remove those human screams from their dreams on certain hot humid summer nights back here at home in Queensland after the war. The Diggers hardly fired a shot on the night in question..as the crocs did the evil work for them. Can you just imagine..being a soldier scared,then being jumped by a huge croc in pitch darkness,in clouded muddy water,and as your comrades are also shredded an eviscerated and dragged to their wailing screaming deaths as a food source for starving saltwater crocs? War is Hell!..But Crocs are The Stuff of Natural World Nightmares!
Eeeeeeeek!!! ..😨😱😨.
(/-\)..
Wow, what a fascinating story. First the Russian badass killing a wolf with bare hands. Then a Wes Craven meets Dumas horror film about an apocalyptic battle with hundreds of wolves in Paris. Never heard of this before, so now I have something to look into. Can't wait for part two. I also have a compulsion to read Steppenwolf again for some reason.
On the subject of animal attacks during wartime, there's lot of scary stories of tigers attacking both US and Vietcong forces during the Vietnam war
Thanks for mentioning it Andrej. I had run into that listening to Mark Felton's videos (specifically the one on Rock Apes). I was likewise intrigued and may consider doing an episode on it.
@@WartimeStories Mark Felton's channel is awesome!
@@WartimeStoriesPlease do! I've heard some absolutely chilling tales from Vietnam vets about tigers.
I literally binged Mark Felton’s channel through the holidays
Wasn't expecting to learn so much about wolves from a video on this channel but it was a pleasant surprise. I've been curious about the Beast of Gevaudan since watching a documentary about it on the History channel, maybe 10 yrs. ago. They surmised that it was possibly a Hyena that escaped from the king's personal "zoo" and that silver bullets or balls weren't effective because of the metal's weight. Kudos for all of the hard work you all put into your channel.
I imagine if more modern ballistics coexisted with the superstitions of the time, brass bullets would be the go to as they're insanely good at penetrating targets.
This reminds me of a scene from WW2. In the Pacific, there was an island that the Japanese seized early in the fighting. Later retaking the island, Allied forces drove the Japanese into a swamp... filled with Saltwater Crocodiles, the largest crocodilians alive. Supposedly throughout the night, Allies heard the slaughter and gunfire as hundreds died. It seems strange that at times wild animals have come to leave such a deep impact on human history, especially in the midst of war.
Battle of Ramree Island, Burma 1945.
I used to live in a very isolated and small town in the Michigan woods. For most of a year hunters were terrorized by a Coywolf with a twisted/crooked snout. What freaked out the townspeople was its very strange behavior. It was extremely aggressive yet cunning, it would lure hunting dogs into chasing it then turn and kill them when they were too far for the hunters to help. It also seemed to kill without cause as people would find small game dead by wounds consistent with a canine,with a odd jaw alignment causing the bite wounds to look a bit off, yet little if any of the game was eaten. It also couldn't howl properly, making a rather unnerving warped howl at around 11pm every night. It was eventually tracked down and killed. There shouldn't have been any coyotes in the area and there were very few wolves in the area,so how that unfortunate creature came to be in those woods is a bit of a mystery.
They smoked a skinwalker
This guy (Luke Lamana) is a great storyteller and narrator. Keep 'em coming!
Since was a child, wolves have fascinated and scared me: they're strong, agile and intelligent. A terrific natural adversary to fear and respect.
Never seen a more unsettling documentary about wildlife, and I say this as a very good things, amazing content as always
Lived in Northern Minnesota my whole life its a scary experience running into a pack while hunting the woods they are still the king of the forest as far as I'm concerned. I've seen 14 in a group in the field at my hunting shak from my deer stand.
@Luna Tenebra not in Northern Minnesota we only have black bears and timber wolves will put a whooping on them
It shouldn't go without saying, thank you Luke for all the content that you provide! For an avid WWI and Medieval enthusiast, this was a very welcome addition to the roster.
This channel is so underrated, I love it because it brings out aspects of war that you don’t usually see
A sincere and very much appreciated comment, Mr. President. Thanks!
By the way, thanks for that letter you sent me in the 3rd grade, congratulating me for making the honor role 😂
@@WartimeStories No problem Solider, It’s what presidents do.
(I also sent a letter to Kim Jong-Un when he was young and it was full of fat jokes)
Well, I have an all nighter to pull, so god bless your timing.
I just had... a feeling. Haha. Thanks.
@@WartimeStories no, thank you bro.
This is probably my favourite story you've told so far stoked for part 2
Artfully done, as are all your Bedtime Stories and Wartime Stories. I commend you for your hard work and talent. They are both on full display. A fan for good, here.
There needs to be a movie about the Battle of Courtaud's Pack.

This is the closest humanity has got to joining forces and fighting a enemy other than itself
Emus
@@andrewdriver3318 And the Emus still won
@@DanielScutt I know this isn't what you meant so forgive me for seeming to take your statement out of context. I likewise can't help but acknowledge the idea of humans eradicating disease by eradicating "the diseased". My understanding of this premise coming from my research into the inhuman experiments and exterminations taking place during various wars, as well as the study and implementation of eugenics both here in the US and abroad. Good intentions (improving humanity) with immoral practices (destroying actual humans), I suppose is another way of putting it.
That being said, I sincerely do appreciate you making an important distinction:
As much as we destroy each other for the sake of bettering ourselves, there is much kindness in the world that is often overlooked--certainly by our media. Why we tend to focus more on the negative and repeatedly pit ourselves against each other, rather than focusing on the struggles we all face together... whether that's spiritual or psychological I couldn't say.
@Igor Lukyan I had much the same thought myself when writing this. More to the point of recognizing the irony of men sent to kill each other temporarily becoming allies, only to then return to killing each other once the common enemy is defeated. Humans are probably the few among Earths inhabitants that so frequently contradict themselves. But then again, it appears wolves demonstrate the same behavior in dire situations, ignoring their previous territorial rivalries and hunting together with foreign wolves when survival is of the essence.
An* enemy
Though deadly, wolves are noble animals and have their code of honor. Great work man!
First off that was awesome, I have had the privilege to see a wolf in the wild about 20 feet away a big regal looking gray one with wise and powerful golden eyes. Wolfs are to be respect and not feared as monsters. Wolf Attacks especially fatal ones are quite rare ( I think only 2 in the last 100 years ).. at least in north America.
This was an incredible story and I learned many things that I had not known before. I love learning and learning new and extraordinary things. Can't wait for part two! Thank you so much and stay safe!
Please bring the next part to this story soon. It was amazing listening to this espically the Courtaud & The Paris Wolf Attacks tale. Keep up the good work. Kudos.
I love your channel, and appreciate the photos, research, and narrating thank you 😊

Brilliant vid man !! Outstanding presentation with your distinctive voice makes these vids enthralling!! Your channel needs to be seen by more, thank-you.
This video and story is AMAZING! I am at a lack of words to explain how I feel. Mesmerized? Great work Wartime Stories ❤
Loved the little behind-the-scenes segment at the end of the credits XD Your voice kind of remind me of Wesker's from the RE series for some reason. And onto the video, I've seen so many videos of wolves acting.... well, like dogs, sometimes it's easy to forget they're actually a wild animal. Looking forward to part 2!
😂😂😂 I was thinking the same - every time I listen, all I hear is Wesker 😂😂😂
Haha the ending with the howl was just magical!
Great narration dude, you keep improving. And I’m very impressed by the pronunciation you did for the places and names in French in this one. Thanks for sharing this interesting story.
Thanks for saying so!
Interesting, cannot wait for part 2
When I learnt about the guy who strangled a wolf with his bare hands, I was like: "Damn, brother, you're one really ballsy guy to do just that; strangling a wolf bare-handed."

Bravo bravo 👏 five thumbs up 👍
Simon Andrews really is such an amazing guy! 👏 This episode is amazing! 👏 Luke, you're, amazing!And that French general...he was amazing too! He deserved a raise!!! 👏👏👏
I love the detail of the voicing of captain Boisselier in Old/Middle French. And I would have loved to read it as it was used in this video, and also to know who voiced the good captain.

This is one of your finest episodes, very glad to have tuned in
LUKE, dude, while I'm still catching up in your channel and am super later to this one, I have to say I'm amazed with this first episode on wolf attacks! The extremely immersive sound design, excellent art & animation, script and narration are all superb. This could have been a PBS documentary. Really enjoying your work!
One of the best RUclips channels out there. So much work and research went into creation of each episode. The narration, story presentation, content, animation and music are all top notch! Excellent work Luke👌👍Look forward to watching more of your superb quality content.
Epic story man thank you so so much!
I thought it was interesting, thanks for saying so!
@@WartimeStories Yup onto part 2 now sir! And can't wait do devour it wolf style! xD
Great story. Waiting for part 2. Have a good day everybody.
One of the best stories I heard 😮
If true, it's a tragic story with these wolves being drawn into a horrific trap.
I'm not suggesting that the people of Paris did not have to act, but it doesn't make the story any more palatable.
The wolves, led by their fearless and charismatic leader, Courtaud, were clearly desperate and starving - I'm sure that they had a fair idea that it was a trap, but felt that they had no other option.
I'm also sure that they didn't want to approach human settlements causing the initial attacks - they must have been driven to this behaviour, so it is sad that this final battle had to take place.
Subscribed. Incredible story-telling, animation and depiction.
GR8 story👍 it's just what I needed I Can't w8 for Part two
Wow the battle in Paris gave me chills, phenomenal work
Your videos and contents are always 1st class,highly informative and very entertaining. Deserves tons of subscribers.

Can’t wait for part 2👍
-read it all, I promise it is positive! I've a distinct preference for UK narrators, so was quite disappointed when I found you were from the US. ( I threw an utter fit when Rich- temporarily-stepped down from narration @ BTS) How wrong I was about you. You have an excellent narrative presence, tone and timing. You genuinely sound like a professionally trained voice. My 13 year old and I have been utterly captives of the Wolves episode, which makes a perfect prequel to the BTS Gevudan episode. Spot on, keep at it sir! Cheers!
This channel has taken over my creepypasta listening, great narrations!
I can't wait to watch part 2!
That was really good.
⚓ This strikes a nerve. Yes, I a Native American who served in the U.S. Navy., so I can relate to this. The wolf should be respected for it is a sacred animal.
Absolutely!!
About 2 years ago, in Colorado, a jogger strangled a mountain lion to death. Sometimes you just have to kill with your bare hands.
I saw that, too. You have to be damn lucky, I'd imagine. But still... good to know!
Incredible video. Well done!
Wonderful episode in every aspect! There's clearly a huge deal of love put into it. Excellent storytelling!
Very good research and story! Thank you for your team!
Beautifully read, I always loved the wolf,being said I do feel terrible when any right human falls to one, one more thing I love the ending music.
Wolfs vs men.. I liked this episode
This was outstanding Luke.
OMG! Great story, and at the end I giggled at the "who knew this job could be hazardous". Too funny!
Fascinating! Great story.
Wow
My hearts racing. I'm sitting on the edge of my bed
I never realized how enthralled I am in this story
Can you just picture wolves as big as the ones in Eurasia

Wolves are so misunderstood I had several as pets when I was young. Thanks Luke for your hard work
Really? I have seen my fair share of either wolves or wolf-breed dogs in my time. Along with a Peregrine falcon, I've always imagined having one as a pet. Beautiful animals. And as with Rottweilers, Pitbulls, and other controversial canines, I'd imagine the arguments for and against having them as pets are (as expected) entirely subjective.
Sigh. I've noticed a few commenters unfortunately taking the story out of context. I would personally like to distinguish that there is clearly a behavioral difference between individual wolves who are well-cared for, especially domesticated wolves, and packs of wild animals lead to the brink of starvation doing what they have to to survive.
Humans are easy to misunderstand things, sadly...
@@osakarose5612 How's he, by the way?
@@WartimeStories I lived in the bush for years when I was young; none of the wolves were domesticated. They just hung out and left. We never had issues of random attacks of starving animals when living in northern Canada. Mainly we knew this would occur due to unforeseen circumstances (fires or droughts or stupid tourists). You just drop food in remote locations in hopes of preventing this from taking place. However, when wars happen, bad things will happen and that tragic.
"Pet"? "Domesticated wolves"?
These animals aren't dumb as dogs or cows - I find it hard to believe how a genuine wolf could ever become something as patronizing as a "pet". You may misunderstand the meaning of the words tho. A "companion" would probably be the closest I'd go as they are just as independent as any human.
All i could thing for the second half of this video was ''Why hasn't anyone made a propper big budget movie about that Wolf Horror story in Paris?''. Or have i just missed it? I mean, that could make for a genuine great horror type film. With the right people working on it, the right music etc... Could be a insanely good film. A propper R rated film that doesn't shy away from the brutal nature of, well nature. I would pay to see such a film. No matter how much of it is real or not. It's a genuinly great tale of mans fight against nature.
During the retreating of the French during the Russian campaign of 1812 a long the route they found stIll living French soldiers who'd had there legs feasted on by wolves.
Man I just thoroughly enjoyed this for the simple fact that it made me recognize a facet of human history that while I was aware of had never really taken the time to consciously explore. That doesn't happen all that often anymore, but it's quite the pleasure when it does. Like button, here I come.
Great!
Thats an amazing story. Keep up the good work boys.
Awesome video as usual. Personally I think the music might be a tad loud.
