Lost Creek Hollow the raided cache

Due to the weekly hunt die roll, we've struck an event!  This event is non-mandatory, so your participation is entirely optional but will count as a bonus to your character during the next rank shuffle. There's no posting order and the round will end Monday, December 21st or when it appears the majority have responded. ;)

Coincidentally, while the wolves of Lost Creek Hollow were out tracking and hunting an elusive winter herd of deer, a cache in the northwestern reaches of their claim found itself disturbed by an unknown assailant.  The frozen earth beneath the accumulation of snow was strewn about reckless and wild; the once well-kept and maintained cache holding a quarry of particular importance missing from its hold.  While most creatures are no doubt intelligent enough to bypass the claim of a wolf pack, this one happened to either be too arrogant to pay attention, or perhaps it was simply keen enough to notice that the wolves had left for a brief period to hunt one of their many ranges in and around the forest.

Assorted tracks of curious investigators linger the area, both canine and not and their collective thoughts are all the same — what will the wolves think?  And as the pack returns with the spoils of their latest and narrow victory, who will be the first to discover and alarm the others of the intrusion?  Had the bear they drove off come back to steal what it wanted?  Could it have been the cougar that had attacked their alpha male?  Or was it something more, or even supernatural?  The only thing left standing as the scene unfolds is the turn of events the wolves themselves would bring themselves to discover and believe.
