Code 1958 Lutra canadensis about first of March, 1958 - Colville River, below Uniat During the wolf hunting season, Harold Curiffin and Carl Bolse saw one other two others sliding on snow banks along the river. When first seen the animal was sliding down a gentle slope and went into an open lead in the river. They banked the plane and turned in time to see the other climb back up on the bank. When it saw the plane, it jumped back into the river. The locality was just below the coal seam across the river from Uniat. Lutra canadensis is now Lontra canadensis per Wilson + Nadu 2nd Ed.
