He apparently was worried the wolf would attack his cattle next, so he had to deal with the threat immediately. The man and the wolf ended up involved in a fight in the snow, before he grabbed the animal by its throat and held it.

The man can be seen repeatedly striking the wolf, in a scary footage. One report said: "The farmer had no time to pick up his rifle, and went into a bare-handed fight with the animal."

The wounded man - who posed with the dead wolf - is being tested for rabies after the attack.

Wolf attacks have become more common in Novotroitskoye. Some say it is because nearby forests have been destroyed, leaving wolves without their natural habitat. Mass animal vaccinations have been carried out in the region, southwest of Birobidzhan, capital of Russia¡¯s Jewish Autonomous Region.

According to various reports, villagers say that wolf attacks on guard dogs and farm animals are becoming more common after the destruction of forests in the region.

One villager reportedly told local news channel the woods are being destroyed and burned down, so wolves are losing their usual prey.

Regional chief vet Galina Dzyuba said tests were underway to establish if the slain wolf was rabid. She said: ¡°Soon we should know the exact reason for the attack.

¡°Did it happen because the wolf was running short of food or was sick?¡±
