Unless it's a wolfsbane bullet I would think werewolves would be able to heal from a higher percentage of them than humans Fair enough, but a werewolf can heal from a bullet in the brain, but not a slash to the throat? I'm just saying that our wolfy friends would be less likely to recover from a shot to the head than most of the other nonsense they pull with each other. Like surface slashes, for example. Or punches, for Christ's sakes. How is that ever going to work? No bites though. Weird. Guess the fangs are mostly just for intimidation value.

Oh, and in the interest of fairness, I realise that Argent nailed the Kanima in excess of half a dozen times and all it did was incapicitate it for five seconds and piss it off (but come on, nothing else did anything to it either!). But we've never seen a werewolf take a bullet anywhere vital. Boyd and Derek in Raving got shot up pretty good - no head shots but wolfsbane laced bullets almost everywhere else.
