Redtail Rise LIII

Redd watched him begin to harry them and was only an instant behind, placing herself on the other side of the quarry to better ensure they isolate her entirely.  She kept a careful distance at most times, but when one threatened to break from the herd and run opposite, she snapped her jaws near its legs, encouraging it stay with the rest.  She did not wish to risk putting both hunters between portions of the herd.  Together the safest escape was to flee.  An isolated and healthy bison might find reason to fight.

She heard the panicked cries of the unfortunate cow they left behind, and barely noted that she attempted to struggle and join them.  She did not think it would make it far, even if it did find its legs, so she ignored it in favor of the chase.  She would break from them when the hunt lead deemed proper.
