The story of the Beast of Gévaudan sounds like one of the more gruesome French fairytales, but according to a study from the Norwegian Institute for Nature Research:

"The case has been documented by a range of authors including two abbots (Pourcher in 1889 and Fabré in 1901) and by historians de Bayac and de Beaufort (1987). These authors have examined a wide range of documents, including parish and church records, death certificates, official reports and private letters. Clarke (1971) has summarised the results in English. As a result this remains one of the best-documented historical episodes of wolf predation on humans.

It appears that the local population was familiar with rabid wolves attacking people, but from the outset of this episode it was clear that the wolves were not rabid, as the attacks persisted over a long period, and most of the victims were consumed. In addition, a number of people were bitten during attacks, but managed to drive the wolves away. None of these victims later died of rabies. If the wolves had been rabid it would have been inevitable that most of the victims would have gone on to develop rabies."
