If I lived in northern Idaho, I'd carry a .45 when I took a walk too!
From what my dad told me and from what one of my criminal justice professors said back in the day, that part of my home state has one of the highest concentrations of violent political extremists in America. Feral dogs (not that there are many up there thanks to the indigenous predators) aren't a pimple on the behind of the various species of gun totin human bad asses calling those woods home!
That happened just down the road from me (not far from a wooded area where I sometime take my dogs to run wild) ... It's absolutely heartbreaking
This incident has pushed me to graduate from carrying a headless carbon fiber driver, to carrying my .44 special with me when hiking the dogs in some of our wilder/less civilized destinations out in the country.
Is this a known ongoing problem in your area? I'm trying to imagine a feral dog problem so severe that this couple could have been killed by a dog pack so near their home. I mean that sounds like a level of organized predation that I hadn't thought possible in feral dog packs. Pumas or grizzlies or even wolves... maybe. Dogs no.
It seems to me that these folks might have died some other way and then the dogs were drawn to their corpses.
I've never heard of such a thing... other than a big, man eating grizzly killing a couple of humans like that.
^^^I take a slightly different view of that. Leaving them to nature vs. intentionally drawing them into human contact. It's kind of like a wildlife documentary where the narrator says "I want to help so bad but, I just can't interfere with nature's course".

I just feel so terrible for the family of these two people who lived their lives in service to their community. I can not imagine my grief if one let alone two members of my family met such an end.
