Recent dispatches from Chamberlain,
S. d., told of the unusually large number
of wolves in that vicinity and on the cattle
ranges west of the Missouri river. Re
ports from many other portions of South
Dakota show that wolves were never so
plentiful as they are at present. Serious
loss has been experienced by stOckmen in
the western part of the state and even in
the eastern part depredations are constant
ly increasing.
The wolves are not the common coyotes,
but are the large gray timber wolves, and
some of them that have been killed are

AT one point in the northern portion of
the state II wolves were recently counted
in a single pack feeding on the carcass of
a horse. Since the settlement of the coun-
try no such thing has ever before been
known, and a gray wolf has always been
rarity east of the Missouri river.
There must be reason for this sudden
influx of dangerous animals, and old trap
pers who have spent their lives in the
northwestern wilderness have an explana-
ton for it. They say that the wolves come
from the extreme north, away up in the
woods Of Alberta and the vicinity of Hud-
son bay, and that the migration is tho
