That reminds of a book I read as a teen about a wolf walker woman. I wanted a pet wolf for a few years.

I was blessed to have gotten to live with a wonderful wolf-dog hybrid for several years. She belonged to a former housemate, who got her from a wolf/wolf-dog rescue operation.
She was the sweetest and gentlest thing, aside from food defensive issues.

I went on a walk with some wolves once...I did not fully appreciate how big they can get until then.
I am quite sure several wolves could take down an Elk or Moose.

Absolutely they can... but they are smart too, why risk life and limb (as a moose or elk can kill a wolf with a single hoof strike) when you can get an easy safe meal.
All predators will take an opportunity for a safe meal.

OTOH, you don't fully appreciate how big a moose can get until you're close to one of them.

Beware; she might have dog-proofed them......
A friend once had an unforgettable experience. We were at a backyard party in an old neighborhood. This neighborhood had an alley, and the trash cans were out behind the garage near the alley-way. Unbeknownst to my friend, the homeowner had been having problems with roving dogs overturning his trash cans. To stop this problem, he had connected an old car battery and coil to the trash cans. This seemed to deter the dogs rather well.
The party, naturally, featured lots of adult beverages. The small house only had one bathroom, and the ladies were monopolizing it. As the line for the bathroom never got shorter, my friend went out behind the garage, and...............you can probably guess what happened next.

Mkay, how exactly did he connect the battery to the trash cans? Please be specific. A diagram may be helpful.

Battery negative post to a piece of rebar stuck into the ground.
Battery positive post to the input side of the coil. Output side of the coil to jumpered to each (metal) trash can. Trash cans sitting an a wooden pallet. When someone or something completes the circuit between the trash cans and the ground, they get to be a part of the discharge path for the coil's stored power.

I imagine your garbage cans get rusty quite quickly. AFAICT, you've made your garbage cans the sacrificial anode for your rebar.

I imagine that if you were to actually read the whole OP you will be able to figure it out.

True dat. They weren't my trash cans, though. I think he only left it on there for a month or so - long enough for the dogs to learn the lesson, and my friend to have his unforgettable experience.I imagine your garbage cans get rusty quite quickly.
