Hunters Fend Off Aggressive Wolves
“The horses started freaking out,” said Pitman, who first saw a
group of wolves approaching no
more than 30 to 40 yards away.
Appleby saw them soon after. “There were seven or eight of them and they were running at us
at full stride at first,” said Appleby, who dashed toward the
wolves to get his rifle. “I was about halfway there and I heard Raymond shoot with his
.44 mag,” Appleby wrote in his statement to Montana Fish, Wildlife
and Parks. “When I reached my gun, I picked it up and the wolves
stopped. I pointed my gun at them at about the same time they
started to run at us again. At that time, I feared for my life and
the horses and my friend and I started to shoot”/
