South Dakota Badlands 6L Ranch Wolfer Bud Dalrymple Skinning Two Greys 1910 Real Photo Postcard
This postcard captures an aspect of life in the American West during the early 20th century, depicting a hunter, B.L. Wolfer, with two greys — likely coyotes, given the Western plains setting and common hunting practices of the era. Coyote hunting was a widespread activity, driven by the demand for pelts in the fur trade and by efforts to control predator populations that threatened expanding livestock operations, particularly cattle and sheep ranches, across the Western frontier.
