Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

The struggle to resist the sureness of death would be the same for drowning as for wolves. The actual process of death though, is much faster in drowning - so I understand. The first lungful underwater causes no coughing or choking, but a gentle descent into suspended animation and, soon, blackness.

Being ripped to shreds by wolves over a period of several minutes after the acceptance of the sureness of death, holds far less attraction. ;-)

I'd easily prefer acute prolonged pain over lungs filling with water.  It's a phobia.  It's not meant to be rational.
