Back to The Wild.

There was a time when all dogs
were wild and when what we call
wolves were different from other dogs
only as a collie now is different from
a Newfoundland, for instance. From
time to time you will hear of dogs
that have returned to the life of their
ancestors and have run wild with the
wolves of the prairie or Of the woods.
In the town of Sandy in Oregon a
greyhound one night made the ac-
quaintance of coyote, which Is a
kind Of wolf, and ever since he has
lived away from the town, running
with the coyotes and approaching hui
man dwelling-places only to steal a
hen or two when he has been more
than usually hungry.
