Bad Wolf?

It seems astounding in this day and age, that today's Tour de France stage was disrupted by French farmers worried about wolves eating their sheep.

The start here this morning will be put back 7 miles to avoid a demonstration by angry Alpine farmers, demanding action against the ravages of les loups among their flocks.

They've tried this twice before, but both times it turned out they were lying about the wolves. Tour organisers refused to listen this time.
