A British woman who died in northern Greece after apparently being mauled by a pack of stray dogs may have been attacked by wolves, a coroner has said.
Celia Hollingworth, from Bradford-on-Avon, Wiltshire was reported missing last Thursday after visiting an archaeological site near Maroneia.
Coroner Nikolaos Kifinidis said, “It seems like she may have been attacked by other wild animals, like rabid wolves and jackals.”
The recently retired University of Bristol staff member took a taxi to a local archaeological site on Thursday, according to Greek police.
It is thought she tried to walk back along a coastal path when she was attacked. Reports suggest that Ms Hollingworth tried to contact her relatives in London after being attacked, but lost signal on her phone. Her body was found on Friday.
