That was disgusting.
I, too, think it sounds probable that the wolves mistook Valier for the seer, but two other possible reasons struck me as well.
1) Valier & her hunches were considered too dangerous for someone.
2) At least one of the wolves is rather quiet and Valier was considered dangerous as she said we should keep an eye on the quiet ones. There were others who were more than her for lynching the quiet, though, so I don't know.
