Baird - band-tailed badger. The species, I. pinicola (if any good) is represented by 4-5 species. They inhabit the grasses of the open forest at Lockebuie. Its tracks, which I saw on the sand dunes respectively, are curiously like those of our N.Am. rabbit. The forepaws are similarly placed one ahead of the other, but the hind feet do not pass ahead of the front ones as in rabbits. A very small one found in a carpet snake. One was picked up dead at Iron Ridge. Its color was pale rusty brown. A foot of a second was found by Van in a trap. At Mt. Vosser a single young animal (not found young) was killed by the blow of an axe or by one of our "boys". No other was seen. The remains of a badger in a crow's stomach at Binnie Creek. One hunted out of a hollow log by a dog yesterday, taken 8 mi. n.w. of Coen.
