PAGE TEN LAST GRAY WOLF IS POISONED BY Prince Found Dead Animals Worst Problem Of Cattleman Fifty Years Ago Many Killed By Hunters Had Notoriety. ENCAMPMENT. Wyo. (UP) There will be no more gray wolvea at the door In Wyoming. The last known gray wolf In the at.ate was found dead recently In En campment valley. The animal died after eating poison meat aet out by rred Potter. With the passing of th. laat of the gray wolves old atorles of their depredations were recalled. Cattlemen's Problem Fifty yeara ago wolvea were the worst problem th. cattleman had to solve. In 196 the state paid boun tlea of S3 each on 3458 wolves. Buffalo, elk. deer, antelope and other big game were killed by the wolves. Then the beasts turned to cattle and horses. From I80S to 1027 there were 38.181 wolves killed or captured In the state. In 1915. when the biological survey started work In Wyoming, there were iuw woivea doing damage to game and livestock estimated at at a 1,000,- 000 annually. Some In Park With the exception of Yellowatone park, there probably are no more gray wolves In Wyoming. A number of the wolvea. killed by federal and state hunters, had noto rious pasts. Notable among the wolves were: Scarface, Five-Toes, Cushion Toot, rtcd Flash and l pair of Sheridan wolves. Ths most notorlus wolf killer, and the one who carried the largest price on nia neaa, was the Custer wolf. This king of ths killers ralurcd over northeastern Wyoming and west ern ooutn Dakota for nine years. During his reign of terror he killed cattle valued at more than .29,000. Big Reward At his killings Increased and his fame spresd. the reward for his increased until the old wolf was carrying around a price of 8500, dead or alive. His mate was killed but old Custer. mrUng and aly. avoided all traps and poison. Two coyotea acted as bodyguard for the cunning old wolf and followed him as he ranged through the country. The coyotes would always be near him, but never ran by his side. They would follow him and feed on his kills after Custer hsd eaten hla fill. If. P. Wllllama, after following the wolf for an months, finally caught imp ana Killed him. PflFTC RRFuKFu.1T X TODAY'S FEATURE 1 1 WRITERS CONCLAVE HI J?m- Z I (Contmued from tag.
