The name means, "Mad Wolf." Yaha-Hajo was the second principal war chief
of the Seminole nation and had been among the seven chiefs selected to
inspect the western lands reserved for the Seminoles. For a time he wavered
between the pro-American faction and Micanopy, who fought against selling
any land to the United States. He finally joined Micanopy and was killed
by a Dragoon patrol on the banks of the Oklawaha River.
