A wolf attacked an eight-year-old boy in the Rostov region
In the village of Gukovo, Rostov region, a wolf living with neighbors bit an eight-year-old child. The boy's mother, Anna Belyaeva, told Izvestia on September 17 that local residents had kept the animal in an aviary for more than five years.
"They said he was in the enclosure, closed, everything was fine. The whole street knew that there was a wolf there," she said.
The woman noted that she warned the children not to enter the neighbor's yard, but they did not obey. On the day of the tragedy, the students came to visit a classmate on whose property the beast lived.
Belyaeva's son said that the girl opened an aviary, tied up the animal and invited her friends to look at it. The wolf sniffed the boy, and then pounced and bit him. After learning about the incident from the children, the woman rushed to save her son.
"I screamed, I called him, he came out covered in blood, all bitten. I grabbed her in my arms and went home, they called an ambulance," Belyaeva said.
After the incident, the beast was shot, and the child was hospitalized with multiple wounds. The boy has now been discharged, but he is still in pain. His mother clarified that the wolf's owners had not apologized to her — she had received only an obscene message from the girl's mother.
In July, a bear attacked a tourist from Saratov sleeping in a tent in Kamchatka. According to the regional Minister of Emergency Situations Sergey Lebedev, the woman received first aid, then the victim was taken to the hospital, where she underwent surgery. The Investigative Department of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for the Kamchatka Territory has opened a criminal case on the provision of paid services that do not meet the requirements for the safety of life and health of consumers (Part 1 of Article 238 of the Criminal Code).
