- Judge Reinhart is acting out of fear. He thinks that if he acquiesces with the demands, if he does what he can, that the wolves will be appeased and he and his family will be saved.
How could Judge Reinhart not be fearful, however, I do not think his decision making matches your interpretation.

"Acting out of fear" is not "acting out of cowardice." One can fear something and try to do the minimum escalation of responses, without being a coward. It's when you go up the scale of responses to where action has to be taken and you don't do it out of fear you will be harmed, that cowardice comes in. Trying to solve things with less than thermonuclear war for a response is normal and sane.

Misunderstandings happen. I can understand why you'd be concerned. Clarity in communication is better. :-)
