WOLF 00G KILLS
BIG BLACK BEAR
—
SKATTI.K. — "Wolf” is Alaska's
savage outlaw dog. The blood of
many creatures is on his hardened
conscience, and the brand of his fang
on man and beast.
Son of the wild, he is, by virtue of
what he learned from his human as
sociates, a super-brute. Many call
him the “Timber Devil.”
The story of his battle to the death
with a she bear near here probably is
unmatched lor dog courage and loy
alty to master. It was told by Paul
Buckley, widely known Alaskan, from
whom this remarkable dog recently
was stolen.
Wolf’s mother was a husky, his
father a timber wolf. From puppy
hood he has been a killer. Battle j
scars cover him. One ear is gone. A .
tuft under bis jaw. like a beard, gives j
the broad wolfish head a particularly j
sinister look. And hi* hates a bear
with all the inherited venom of his
breed.
Jump Mother Bear and ( uhs
When Buckley, his master, hunting
up Valdez creek, jumped a large she
bear and two cubs in the blueberry
bushes, Wolf leaped to the attack to
protect the man.
Circling for advantage, slashing
and snapping warily, the two arch
enemies bore oil up a slope. Buekley,
fearing for his dog, tried to whistle
him back. Once or twice Wolf at
tempted to return, but the bear out
flanked him.
Then Wolf, with all his cunning, be-j
gan a deadly maneuver that ended I
only when the two had gone deep into |
the solitudes. Just as the she hear
had forgotten her eubs, so the wolf
I dog had now forgotten his master un
til this wilderness feint had been set
tled. i
i t j
| Running with tireless ease, Wolf
i drew the black bear on until fatigue
' had sapped her terrible energy, until
j her slashing charges had begun ti
' abate. She was fat, and he was lean
I—the resilient leanness of lighting fit
; ness. And they, closed, in a whirl of
| fury.
Dog Proves the Victor
It must have been magnificent, that
I finish of cardinal hate, hut no man
I saw it. Buckley, who had watched
the beginning from a tree top, and
t who waited many hours for his dog’s
i return, had finally made temporary
camp and had shot the two whining,
deserted cubs.
Hours later W’olf dragged himself
into Buckley’s permanent camp six
miles distant, where his master’s part
ner was getting dinner. His tongue
was out. He was badly mangled.
W’ith supreme effort he got upon
Buckley’s hunk, eallihg weakly for his
master.
But there was bear’s blood on his
muzzle, and a gleam of victory in the
baleful eyes. Next day prospectors
told of having found a dead she bear
not far away in the timber—with her
throat ripped open.
