Moreover, the wolf kills even closer kinsfolk than the fox.

When pressed by hunger it will undoubtedly sometimes seize a coyote, tear it in pieces and devour it, although during most of the year the two animals live in perfect harmony.

I once myself, while out in the deep snow, came across the remains of a coyote that had been killed in this manner.

Wolves are also very fond of the flesh of dogs, and if they get a chance promptly kill and eat any dog they can master--and there are but few that they cannot.

Nevertheless, I have been told of one instance in which a wolf struck up an extraordinary friendship with a strayed dog, and the two lived and hunted together for many months, being frequently seen by the settlers of the locality.
