Wolves definitely don't harm people. In North America there isn't one recorded incident of a healthy wolf attacking a person . . . ever. Also, a lot of farmers complain that wolves are responsible for the death of some of their livestock and, while this is true, wolves cause significantly fewer deaths to domesticated animals than do dogs, coyotes, or mountain lions. Wolves are a wonderful animal that is desperately needed in order to obtain balance within the ecosystem. In fact, in the absence of wolves deer and other horned prey overpopulate and can cause trees to die off because they rub their bodies and horns against them so wolves are actually tree conservationists! Wolves have a rich family life that humans could learn a thing or two from but for the most part they just want to be left alone.
While attacks by wolves are uncommon, they do occur. For a list of North American attacks, click on this link.
