He was also checking for scent trails, planning to go hunting later to bring some food in for the pack. The main hunter was down and out and the male felt the need to pick up the slack, especially with Jewell due any day now. It was nearing dark and the valley was growing quiet as the animals began to bed down for the night. It made things a bit eerie but the older male continued on.
Long legs and large paws were careful to not make a noise as he moved, approaching the spot where the two outsiders were lingering close by.
