Guardian dogs. In other parts of the world shepherds have been living with wolves and bears since forever with the help of their companions. These are huge dogs, intelligent but independent. They roam and fend off bears, jackals and wolves and from my own experience, unfortunate hikers and cyclists.
There are many projects currently underway, introducing these dogs to America, Europe and Africa, as an alternative to killing on sight.
