History
Rogan Claims Wolves Forced World War I Ceasefire Between Russia and Germany

What was said
"World War I, the Russians and the Germans had a ceasefire because so many of them were getting killed by wolves in Siberia. They decided to have a ceasefire, kill the wolves, and then go back to killing each other."
Rogan cited a historical account claiming that wolf attacks became so deadly during World War I in Siberia that Russian and German forces temporarily ceased hostilities to cooperatively hunt the predator population. The claim illustrates the severity of human-wildlife conflict before modern wolf eradication programs.
