Regarding the wolves during WW1:
Fact Check: Claim – During World War I, German and Russian forces declared a temporary ceasefire and banded together to hunt wolves. The voracious animals were attracted to the prolific and gruesome scavenging available in the warzone, attacking soldiers and civilians alike.
Origin
Multiple newspapers in 1917 reported on this story, including the El Paso Herald, Oklahoma City Times, and New York Times. Since then, it’s become a favorite bit of bar room banter among amateur historians, like the powerful Joe Rogan.
“Poison, rifle fire, hand grenades, and even machine guns were successively tried in attempts to eradicate the nuisance,” according to a 1917 New York Times article. “But all to no avail. The wolves—nowhere to be found quite so large and powerful as in Russia—were desperate in their hunger and regardless of danger.
“As a last resort, the two adversaries, with the consent of their commanders, entered into negotiations for an armistice and joined forces to overcome the wolf plague.”
Takeaway
Though seemingly far-fetched, it turns out these claims are mostly accurate. Historians estimate that soldiers killed hundreds of wolves during the war, and that the surviving wolves fled to escape a “carnage the like of which they had never encountered.”
I am not claiming this is true or false. I was interested in the story, so I looked into it and I'm placing these statements here from a website I found. This is here for anybody that was also interested in the WW1 story Rogan had mentioned.
Some sites claim it is just a Tale, and others are claiming it is a true story.
I hope I was able to help any other curious listener's.

Bears rarely attack groups of people they had a very high chance of survival really, and the fact bears suck at killing compared to lots of other predators

I can't believe I listened to this for 2.5 hours
This is why I always have my 10mm G40 in my Kenai chest rig in the backcountry. Amazing story. Glad nobody was hurt or killed.
