The Montana timber wolf is max
ing such a hit among the motion pic
ture producers that an order has been
sent Eckert for some more wolves.
About six weeks ago Eckert and Joe
Brandle, a rancher near the High
wood ranger station, captured seven
wolf pups from a den in the noun
tains and they have been sold to
Trimble and Murfin and will be ship
ped to the motion picture colony.
The pups are about two months old
and are as gentle as ordinary collie
puppies, he said.
The wolf Trixie was leased to the
motion picture company and will APP
pear in several pictures of the north
land before she is returned to her
ranger owner. The wolf, captured
when just a puppy, is unusually in
telligent and as gentle and good nat

popular in the motion picture colony
