Stone Circle Counting the numbers

For once, bison wasn't on Valette's list today. The female was keeping track of the bison easily, as they lived on the open plains. However, she had been neglecting their deer population quite a bit. She had to check how their numbers had increased or faltered. She hoped the first. The gamekeeper had noticed enough tracks and other marks for her to know that they were still there, however, an exact index was lost to her.

The female would first check the usual hiding spots in their forest to see if there were any herds there. Since their pack was large they needed enough food for everyone, especially if she and her sister would both have pups this spring they would have a lot of mouths to feed. The matriarch moved through the undergrowth quietly. She wasn't stalking since that would slow her down considerably but she was making sure she was moving quietly through the brush.
