This bronze, titled Stalking Kúcu "(koo-choo)" which is the Ute Indian word for buffalo. Prior to the arrival of horses, one technique the Indians used to hunt kúcu was to disguise themselves as wolves. The poor sighted kúcu were used to wolves hanging around and would stand their ground allowing the hunters to get a close enough for a shot.
