The author uses the example of the extermination of wolves in the lower 48 states of the US as evidence, explaining that wolves were nearly wiped out due to human fear and hunting. This evidence shows that humans have historically posed a much greater threat to wolves than wolves have to humans.

The author uses the example of the decline in wolf populations due to human activities such as hunting and habitat destruction as evidence that wolves have more to fear from people. This evidence is helpful because it demonstrates the direct impact of human actions on wolf populations and suggests that wolves are more vulnerable to human threats.
