Baddest Grandma Alive: 56-Year-Old Russian Woman Kills Wolf With Axe (Graphic Image) -
Aishat Maksudova, a 56-year-old Russian farmer from the North Caucasus Mountains, got the better of a wolf that tried to take out one of her cattle.
Maksudova ran over to stop the wolf, which was about to kill one of her calves and then the canine turned its attention on her (Russia is home to Eurasian wolves, close relatives to our gray wolf).

"The wolf suddenly jumped on me with an open mouth. He clawed onto my leg and I wanted to hit him with the ax," she said in an interview with ITN. "When I raised my arm up … the wolf was just holding my hand. I wanted to open his mouth and put my fist all the way to his throat, but I could not open him … And then I took the ax and hit him on the head."
Maksudova was treated for wounds on her hand at a local hospital and doctors said she was recuperating well. As you can see from the photo, the wolf died.
News of the wolf bashing has traveled quickly and Maksudova has already become a hero of sorts in the Caspian Sea province.
Is Maksudova the baddest grandma on the planet? Comment below!

@DDaddy Rock,
-There is a warning of a graphic image.
-The second portion of your post is incorrect.
-The third section is pretty much worthless. How does 65 million years ago relate to this point in time? During the great dying more than 90% of life on earth died and the earth recovered.
-The farmer is not a hero just because she killed the wolf(with your logic, the wolf would of been a hero if it managed to kill the farmer). Both the farmer and the wolf were victims.
My heart shattered when I saw this image.
Wolves do not attack people unless sick, inured, provoked,or trapped. His head laid open as a result of our expansion into their ever shrinking reality.

Where is the hero and who is the victim in all of this?
I believe it would have been said in the old days she showed a lot of pluck.
Lizzie Borden.....
@DaBears,
Yeah, it would of been too bad if she had to kill 3 or 4 =p
Don't try to rustle her cattle!
What a story! She is the baddest grandma on the planet! I'm glad there was only 1 wolf.
Good job on that wolf. I'm glad she had an axe to use.
She was lucky it didn't have rabies.
