CHAPTER EIGHT

Luis put a hand on Ramon’s shoulder; they walked toward the corral gate. Toro followed them, nudged Ramon in the back.

Toro turned, trotted around the corral, bobbed his head, kicked up dirt. The spectators on fences and surrounding buildings still stared at the powerful bull. When the sun lowered in the sky, they left the area.

The wind shifted. Toro sniffed the familiar scent of the dreaded bear. He stopped trotting, pawed the earth, became enraged again, and attacked every shadow, charged the fence and gate. Some of the workers heard the noise and rushed back to the corral.

“The bull is on a rampage again.”

“A killer...”

“But, so calm when Ramon was there.”

Again, the wind shifted. The grizzly picked up the bull’s scent. The bear ripped apart some of the deer meat left for food and sprang the length of his chain. The bear’s mouth salivated like he knew a good meal was but a few yards over the adobe wall. Each time he roared and lunged out, the post vibrated, loosening earth around its base.

Vaqueros in the bunkhouse listened to sounds of the bear and bull.

“It will be a ferocious battle.”

“Ramon’s Toro will be like deer meat.”

“The grizzly is a monster.”

“Bet on the bear.”
