"Man, you's a funny little fella," he chortled, jerking his head upwards a few inches to warn the geezer away. His senses had already alerted him to the female's unkind reaction, but for the time being she seemed to be the least of his worries. The bull swung his haunches away from the elderly male, head still lowered defensively. There may have been a scratch or two from the wolf's valiant efforts, but nothing that caused any great deal of pain or distracted him from the amusement of the moment.
