The 6-year-old boy was visiting a nature reserve with his mother and younger brother in Utrecht, which is 32 miles south of Amsterdam, when the incident occurred on Wednesday, July 30, according to U.K. newspaper The Times and local media outlet RTV Utrecht. The attack happened at the Den Treek estate. In a statement shared on their official website, the estate said the boy was bitten and dragged into the woods by the animal. 'On Wednesday morning, July 30th, a child was bitten by a wolf (presumably Bram) and dragged into the woods,' the statement read. 'The child was with several adults and other children in the woods near the Pyramid of Austerlitz. While playing, the child was unexpectedly attacked by the wolf and dragged away.' The statement added, 'Due to the prompt action of the adults present, who hit the wolf with a stick, the wolf released the child into the woods and ran away. The child was taken away by ambulance. The victim's condition is not yet known.' According to The Times and RTV Utrecht. the boy received stitches for bite wounds on his back and near his armpit. He also had scratches and abrasions. Images shared with RTV Utrecht showed large scratches on the boy's back. He has since left the hospital and is back at home, according to the outlet. 'I thought it was a playful dog running towards us and thought, Nice, I'll go and play,' " the boy's mother, Nynke, 41, told The Times. 'But before I got there, I heard my eldest son screaming very loudly. He was jumped by the animal and dragged into the woods.' Speaking of how her son was rescued, she added, 'There were two men with big sticks who beat the animal and eventually they got it off my son. I was in a state of total panic and grief.' Two other women who were nearby then called emergency services, according to RTV Utrecht. 'I'm very happy that I wasn't alone with my two children,' Nynke told The Times. "It's not like we were going for a walk deep in the woods where no one normally goes," the boy's father Mike, who was not present at the time of the attack, told RTV Utrecht. "We knew about previous incidents at the Den Treek Estate, but I didn't know that the Pyramid of Austerlitz was also part of it," he added.

American Eagle responds to critics over ad with Sydney Sweeney, saying it was always about the jeans
NEW YORK (AP) — Teen retailer American Eagle Outfitters has a message to its critics, who took issue over its denim ad campaign with 27-year-old actor Sydney Sweeney that sparked a debate over race and Western beauty standards. The campaign, the retailer said, was always about the jeans. In a statement posted on American Eagle's Instagram account on Friday, the retailer said the ad campaign 'is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story. We'll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way. Great jeans look good on everyone.' The message marked the first time the teen retailer responded to days of backlash since the ad with the tagline 'Sydney Sweeney has great jeans' launched last week. In the run-up to the ad blitz, the company's chief marketing officer told trade media outlets that it included 'clever, even provocative language' and was 'definitely going to push buttons." It's unclear if the company knew how much controversy the ad could raise. Most of the negative reception focused on videos that used the word 'genes' instead of 'jeans' when discussing the blonde-haired, blue-eyed actor known for the HBO series 'Euphoria' and 'White Lotus.' Critics found the most troubling was a teaser video in which Sweeney says, 'Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color. My jeans are blue.' Other commenters accused detractors of reading too much into the campaign's message. Some marketing experts said the buzz is always good even if it's not uniformly positive. 'If you try to follow all the rules, you'll make lots of people happy, but you'll fail,' Allen Adamson, co-founder of marketing consultancy Metaforce said. 'The rocket won't take off.'
