SHELTON-MASON COUNTY JOURNAL
SHELTON
WOLVES FEWER
(The Journal is indebted to
Mrs. Ben Hughes, the former
Pearl Conklin of Shelton, now
of Anchorage, for the follow-
ing story printed in a recent
issue of an Anchorage-news-
paper.)
Anchorage, Alaska. -- Wolves
are disappearing from the Seward
peninsula, aecoroing to Mrs. Grace
Craddick, Shelton, Wash., school-
teacher, who has spent the past
two months at Kougarok with her
son, Mark, and her daughter-in-
law.
Reindeer are almost extinct on
the peninsula and the wolves are
now leaving the country, Mrs.
Craddick said. One oldtimer told
her that his dog team was at-
tacked by wolves last year, but
this year he has seen almost none
of the predators.
Flying over the Kougarok re-
gion from the mining camp to
Mary's rivet', Mrs. Craddick ob-
served numerous skeletons of
reindeer which had been slain by
wolves and some which had died
with their horns locked together.
One of the most unusual sights
was three reindeer skulls locked
together and entwined with old
telephone wire, Mrs. Craddick
said. A buck had evidently got-
ten his antlers into a roll of wire
and then had been challenged by
two other bucks, all of whom died
in the ensuing battle.
Her first visit to Alaska was
one she will long remember, Mrs.
Craddiek said. The country
around Kougarok was beautiful--
vast rolling hills covered with
green scrub willow and flowers of
rainbow hue. Little mining was
being carried on in that area this
year because of low water. The

WOMAN FINDS DEER,
AROUND ROME
Castleton Mining Co. which era-I
ploys her son, is doiog only main-
tenance work, but some private
mining is being carried on by John
Kanari and George Bodice.
Mrs. Kanari, who lives in Home
during the winter and spends the
summer with her husband near
Kougarok, was delighted to see
Mrs. Craddick and ber daughter-
in-law. They were the only white
women nile had seen since leaving
Nome last spring.
Food and mail were brought to *
Kougarok during the teacher's
stay by the Mundt Air Service, :
which visited the camp weekly.
Heavy freight was brought in by l
boat from Davkl's Landing. i
The two women accompanied :
t Mr. Craddick part way to David's
Landing on one trip to bring back
freight. They decided to stop ov-
ernight at Mary's River to do some
fishing after promising Mr. Crad-
dick they would carry guns for
protection from any wild animals
I that might be in the vicinity.
However, after the boat left
them they decided to leave the
heavy guns in their tent. They
caught six grayling within an
hour and returned to the tent
without sighting any animals.
When Mr. Craddick came back
the next day he visited their fish-
ing site on the river and saw fresh
wolf and bear tracks--the biggest
bear tracks he had ever seen.
Mrs. Craddick arrived in An-
chorage this week en route back
to her home in Shelton. While in
town she was a guest at the An-
chorage hotel.
