apparently cows kill more people than wolves

Maki held on for dear life, her legs lifted off the ground as it spun around, teeth gnashing as it attempted to fling her off. She wasn't entirely sure how she was hanging on, except that her jaw muscles were starting to ache real bad. Letting out a muffled sound of protest, she was flung aside, landed in the snow with an undignified oof, legs stiff like an unturned turtle. She rolled over, scrambling over to the aid of the white wolf, not sure if they were hurt or not, or what they should even really do.

Moving to stand between the bear and winded wolf, she let out a bark, the closest thing to an angry boof she could manage. If nothing else maybe they could bluff it into thinking it wasn't worth the fight?
