    The stone shows a wolf's head with its tongue hanging out with the year 1847 and underneath the inscription that reads:

    “Here on March 10th, 1847
    the last wolf in Württ.
    by Waldschütz Sorg
    shot from Eibensbach.
    He had in the area
    over 50 sheep in one
    Year torn. The wolf
    is now groomed in the
    State Natural History Museum
    1969 "
