Peipt & visitor Beach Pedy - where we saw
no fresh Lemmus sign - although
over from Pom Jaugus were seen along the
southern part of the ridge. Along the north shore
of Wobleskoy Slough & the west shore of Elson,
localized areas of lemming activity were
found. Most of the cutting was along the
runway systems + large areas
no animals seen
Uncut vegetation was most noticeable.
28 may The drum area shows extensive cutting -
not only at sides of runways but
also in polygon types. 6 animals (all
large racet I - J-SA size) were seen -
darting under the snow cover.
From British area - a vacant plot at
Velly, Stoyl, considerable sign was
seen - some places it was extensive - all
the vegetation being cut - while in
other spots - the cutting was only
along the runways. In general, the cutting was
very spotty - with large areas not touched.
Several animals were seen during the afternoon.
Little activity evident between Wobleskoy
& Dokpal Sloughs - 1 animal seen - 2 -
gaugers hunting in the area. Beach Pedy
near guslens had some cut vegetation -
but is not complete yet.
