The King in the Crosshairs: Evidence of a Predation Attempt on European Bison by Wolves

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
To our knowledge, we present the first video‐recorded evidence of wolves attacking a European bison herd in the BPF. The European bison, often referred to as the king of the forest, is generally described as a non‐prey species, but historical data and our recent documented observation provide clear evidence that they can be subjected to wolf predation.
