As is my habit, I looked out at the pasture this morning, checking on the cows and I noticed a week old calf running. Next I saw all the cows surrounding the calf and the mother running to the calf"s side. I though maybe a dog was out in pasture chasing the cows. As cows will do, they were all staring at one spot but it was down in a swale and I couldn"t see what they were looking at. Finally a big ol" gray wolf "skylined" on a rise. He was moving slowly toward the east away from the herd. I grabbed the shotgun and the wife and I jumped in the pick up and tried to cut him off on the road but we never saw him again. I checked the calf while the wife called the tribal dispatcher and within 5 minutes a game warden was at our place. My wife also called the neighbor to warn him because they had pairs where that wolf was going. the warden asked if i wknew the tribl policy on wolves ad I said that I had read it. He said I could treat it like any other "dog" running your stock and shoot it. Then call us. This is a heck of a lot better policy tha the rest of Montana, since the tribe"s policy is basically they will not manage for a given number of wolves but they will also not tolerate attacks on livestock and pets.
We went off to church and he and another game warden checked over the pasture,looking for any sign to confirm the sighting. I doubt they found any because I looked an didn"t see any sign. It turned out the calf was not injured but what a way to start Sunday morning!

I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit
