11 unusual facts about Lone Wolf


Kicking Bird

In 1869, Kicking Bird helped to obtain the release of Lone Wolf and Satanta from army captivity after promising good behavior on their part.

Lone Wolf, who had walked the peace path, was now indisposed and with Satanta removed from his position as head chief, which he lost while imprisoned, Kicking Bird became the dominant chief of the Kiowas.

When Satanta stepped down as war chief in late 1874, to be arrested immediately thereafter, and Lone Wolf surrendered early the next year, Kicking Bird was the only remaining Kiowa chief with a sizable following.

Kicking Bird was successful in keeping his followers on the reservation, but Lone Wolf’s abdication from the road of peace to that of war severely undermined Kicking Bird’s efforts at pacification.

He participated in numerous assemblies as a representative of the Kiowa alongside Lone Wolf, and promised to restore peace among the Kiowa.

Following the battle, Kicking Bird and Satanta were in favor of making peace but Lone Wolf and several other chiefs refused and advocated war against the whites.

Responding to claims that he was a coward and had become effeminate, Kicking Bird assembled a war party and invited some of his chief critics and worst tormentors to participate - Lone Wolf, White Horse, and Satank.

The ranks of war chiefs Satanta and Lone Wolf swelled in comparison and Kicking Bird lost much tribal support.

Kicking Bird was clearly the foremost advocate for an accommodation with the United States, but was opposed by Satanta, Lone Wolf, Big Tree, Maman-ti, and White Horse.

As a result of the Battle of Washita, General Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer arrested Lone Wolf and Satanta and took them to Fort Sill.
