The impression I've been getting from most of the Werewolf books is that modern Garou are, as a group, not all that hostile towards Gurahl.  (Possibly because Gurahl are the about the most inoffensive guys in the entire World of Darkness, with the Mokole a close second.)  I'm sure there are exceptions, but there are probably few or no Garou (other than BSDs) who would KoS a Gurahl.<br/><br/>Of course, Jacob's never met a Garou and has nothing to go on except secondhand stories from the Wars of Rage, so he naturally expects that he should stay hidden from them.  (For that matter, I'd be surprised if du Lac even knew how hollow his own threat was.)
