Garulf was killed in a battle against a band of Uruk-hai and Orcs near Fangorn Forest on the night of February 28, 3019. Unbeknownst to the Rohirrim, Merry Brandybuck and Pippin Took had been held captive by the Uruk-hai and escaped the battle into Fangorn. The next day, Eomer gave Garulf's horse Hasufel to Aragorn.
