That includes wolves
from the Pine Creek pack,
which was responsible for
all the attacks on cattle in
April 2018, as well as a pair
of wolves, one formerly a
member of the Pine Creek
pack, that have been trav-
eling together for the past
month and could poten-
tially start a second pack as
early as this spring.
Barry DelCurto, who
owns a ranch near Half-
way, lost one calf to wolves
from the Pine Creek pack.
Wolves attacked the calf
in April, and the calf died
in June after DelCurto and
his wife, Shella, spent $850
on veterinarian bills.
Barry DelCurto said
when he turns out his cows
and calves on a Forest
Service grazing allotment
east of Halfway, probably
around the middle of April,
he will strive to keep the
herd congregated in larger
groups, where in theory
they are less vulnerable to
wolves.
DelCurto said there is
one cross fence in place in
the allotment, and he plans
to build a second fence to
❾➉❹ ➉➄ ➊➃➄⑨➄➉➄❻ ➈➉❶ ➊❾❷❷❿❺➏
He also plans to install
temporary electric fencing
for the same purpose.
DelCurto said his ulti-
mate goal, in limiting the
movement of his cattle, is
to keep them out of a cor-
ridor that, based on last
year’s events, seems to be
the Pine Creek pack’s pre-
ferred route from the Low
Hills country southeast
of Halfway to the higher,
forested country north of
Highway 86.
He also will employ
“range riders” — people on
horseback who will try to
keep track of the cattle and
discourage wolves from ap-
proaching.
“It’s all going to be an ex-
periment,” DelCurto said.
“It’s going to take some
❷➉Ó❺ ❷➃ ❹❺Ñ❺❿➃Ô ➉❷ ❷➃ ⑨❷ ❽❶➏Õ
The DelCurtos learned
about ways to try to protect
their cattle after attend-
ing a four-day workshop
in Montana in September
2018 put on by a ranching
couple who deal not only
with wolves, but also with
grizzly bears and other
predators.
The DelCurtos were so
impressed by what they
learned from Hilary and
Andrew Anderson that
they invited the couple to
put on a two-day seminar
in Halfway in early Janu-
ary.
The DelCurtos aren’t the
only Baker County ranch-
ers who are preparing for
another spring of moving
their herds onto spring
grazing lands where wolves
roam, said George Rollins,
who lives near Halfway and
is the former co-chairman
of the wolf committee for
the Oregon Cattlemen’s
Association.
Rollins said he has talk-
ed with many ranchers,
including ones who lost
calves to the Pine Creek
pack last April, and “we ex-
pect the wolves to be back
in the same area as they
were last year.”
“That seems to be their
pattern,” Rollins said.

spring, he said, is that
ranchers won’t be taken by
surprise.
“People are much more
aware, and they’ll be
watching out,” he said.
Some ranchers plan to
❽❶❺ ×❾❹⑩➅➁ ❾ ❷➅Ô❺ ➃Ø Ø❺➄➊➉➄❻
designed to deter wolves.
Rollins said other ranch-
ers he’s talked with also
plan to revise their grazing
schedules to avoid moving
cattle into the Low Hills
country where several of
the wolf attacks happened
last spring.
“A lot of guys are altering
their approach, delaying
when they move cattle into
that area or going to other
private ground,” he said.
“They’re trying to be proac-
tive. Doing the same thing
over and over and expect-
➉➄❻ ❾ ❹➉➋❺⑩❺➄❷ ➃❽❷➊➃Ó❺ ➉❶
not going to work.”
Not every rancher has
access to other early season
grazing land, however, so
there will be cattle in the
Low Hills during the same
period as last year, he said.
Rollins expects more
range riders this spring,
as well as a concerted ef-
fort among ranchers to in-
crease the human presence
around cattle and, if they
see wolves, to make noise
and otherwise try to haze
the animals.
Oregon’s wolf manage-
ment plan doesn’t allow
ranchers to shoot wolves
unless the animals are
attacking livestock, but
the den she generally stays
close by, forming the hub
of the wheel. Meanwhile
other wolves, or just the
male in the case of a pair,
travels away from the den
and then returns regu-
larly, bringing food to the
female and pups, each out-
and-back trip constituting
a “spoke” on the wagon
wheel.
The movement pattern
is distinctive, and strong
evidence that a female has

with pretty good certainty
when a female has denned
up,” he said.

The situation this spring
could be complicated by
changes in the Pine Creek
pack.
Most particularly, a
2-year-old female wolf
from the pack joined up
around Valentine’s Day
with a young adult male
wolf, and they have been

said.
Biologists did investigate
the deaths of two newborn
calves during February,
and one calf in early March.
Although wolves had
scavenged at least two of
the calves, there was no
evidence to indicate that
wolves had killed any of the
calves, according to reports
from ODFW.
Two of the cases were
described as not related to
wolves.

area where the calf carcass

The two wolves later
moved out of that area, but
