A 400 member pack does not fit the way wolves roll. They are mainly territorial family groups led by an Alpha male and Alpha female. A 400 member pack would be in a constant fight that would tear itself to pieces. It would take a huge area to support 400 wolves. They'd run themselves to death covering it.

'Super pack' of 400 wolves kill 30 horses in just four days in remote Russian village | Mail Online is one article on the 400 wolf story. It seems to have run in many papers circa Feb 2011 - supposedly the height of wolf season. Even allowing for inaccurate census of pack size they did seem to get 30 or so horses in one day.
Wiki - not the best source I know - lists even some wolves from the Ukraine weighing in the 90 kilo range though rarely and a Romanian example of 70 some kilos.
