Depends on how you define "harm." As far as physical risk of harm and injury, wolves may not pose a great threat to adults as they may be afraid of human presence. For younger children, wolves may choose to attack them depending how hungry they are and also where they are.

As far as harm as in property damages, wolves are proven to be very harmful. Wolves continuously attack livestock in rural areas of Idaho, Montana, Oregon and more. Wolf population increases dramatically as there are no other predators other than human and plenty of herbivores to prey on. In some places like Idaho, wolf hunting was permitted to control the population of wolves to preserve the population of deer and elk and minimize property damages to ranching communities.

Are gray wolves aggressive?

no. Some have been able to train wolves. Some wolves can be more aggressive than others and wolves would take way more time to train and it would be harder to take care of them than dogs. Wolves are really more afraid of humans than we are to them! A wolf may attack a human to protect his/her family because it could think the human could hurt or kill the wolves family! Wolves will go to a farm to kill some sheep,cows,goats and others for survival if there's a lack of food and there hungry. Many farmers will kill wolves because of this but wolves are only doing this to survive.
