The Story of Cheyenne

Cheyenne
by Zig Price

What's so special about a wolf that so many people are attracted to her? What is the difference between this wolf and the thousands of other wolves that never have had any attention paid to them?

Before I tell you, you must know that all wolves are very skittish and shy away from us humans. They would rather run from us than confront us one on one. From the time she was a young puppy Cheyenne was raised by humans and lived in a tourist town where she was available to thousands of people. Just as the other thousands of wolves in the wild, she will shy away from you if she doesn’t trust you.

If she takes a liking to you she will allow you to pet her or she will nuzzle you or she might even lick your face. If you get licked, in the world of the wolf you have just been paid a great honor and no matter if you spend a few minutes with her or stay with her all day, you will leave with a peaceful feeling in your heart.

When you hear the name " Wolf " the first thing you think of is the word "wild". Anything wild attracts us human beings and wolves have always been known as wild, even when in captivity. Indians from one generation to another have handed down fascinating tales of the mysterious powers of wolfs creating a mystique which adds to their attractiveness.

Since us humans are so attracted to things that are wild and mysterious it is no wonder that Cheyenne would draw so many people to her, since she is so available to the public.

Cheyenne has been featured in newspapers, magazines and on television shows. She has had poems and songs written about her and has been a model for a series of paintings called "The Four Seasons of Cheyenne". But Now! Cheyenne is lonely. She no longer lives in a big city but has moved to a small town deep in the Colorado Mountains. Away from the crowds of tourists, artists, and animal lovers, Cheyenne can only wonder why no one comes to see her any more. Why has everyone abandoned her? What did she do to deserve this loneliness? "Where have all the people gone"?

This beautiful animal of the wild has given pleasure to thousands of humans and now it’s time for us to repay her. If you've met Cheyenne before, go see her again for you know the peaceful feeling you get in her presence. If you have never met her, pay her a visit and add your name to the thousands of others before you who have bonded with this beautiful but now lonely and forgotten creature of the wild.

Cheyenne's purpose in life is to be a greeter and share with you the force within the animals of our planet and only when you visit her will you understand what I mean.
