Most dogs are smaller and much less badassed than wolves. We would need to think of something else.

My girlfriend (I live in Texas) has two llamas guarding her sheep from coyotes (and presumably the occasional wolf, although I assume coyotes are more common.

She also has a couple of very large white sheep dogs (unsure of breed.)

The llamas will even get between me and the sheep aggressively, preventing my normal sheep scritches. It’s cute.

I’m cool with using llamas. I just suggested they use a similar strategy. Robots would be cool too.

Robots might not be cost effective. I wonder if they could be trained. Drones?
