STRAY MOUNTAIN SHEEP IS KILLED AT GLENVILLE Second Lone Specimen to Find Its Way Out of Mountain Fastnesses Meets Death Game Commission Officials En- deavoring to Establish Identity of Slayer of Animal For the second time within the past decade a lone mountain sheep made its way last week, out of the Kern county mountain fastnesses in- to civilization, at Glennville, and this specimen, a yearling buck, was shot to death within ten minutes after it was first seen. At the very time that two 30-30 bullets were pumped into its body by someone as yet not certainly identified, District Ranger Wesley Snider with a group of CCC men were hastening from the ranger station to Glennville, hoping to capture the bewildered animal and save its life. The buck made its appearance last Friday, Snider, who was in Porter- tville today, said, and was seen by children at the Glennville school as it passed the school building. It went on down the county road and crossed the state highway. The per- son who telephoned to the ranger station said that the sheep had got into a fence corner, and for the time being seemed confused, unable to de- termain whether it should jump over, make its way around or try to force its way through. Apparently it did worked its way out of this trap and farther along ran between a couple of buildings. When Snider arrived he found it just a little way from the buildings, dead, with two holes through its body apparently made by a 30-30 calibre bullet. The animal was skinned and hide and carcass were turned over to Game Warden Les Arnold of Kern county and Captain of Patrol Sam Balloon, of the valley game com- mission forces. Shooting a mountain sheep consti- tutes a felony and the officers are continuing an effort to establish the identity of the person who fired the two shots. The buck was fat and apparently about a year and a half old. Though the hills have been full of deer hunt- ers during the season just closed, none reported seeing any mountain sheep in the Glennville district, or at any place in the Tulare county Sierras, so far as known. It has been reported for years that there was still a small flock of the moun- tain sheep in the rusged country northeast of Mineral King, but few have been seen of late years. The mountain sheep still linger in the Panamint range, in eastern Inyo county. About six years ago a lone mountain sheep put in its appearance near Glennville, was chased and captured and placed in a corral, from which, howerer, it made its escape during the night. It was never seen again. The animal killed Friday at Glen- nville had a thick coat of gray- lish hair, rather than a fleece, Rang- er Snider said, and two heavy horns several inches in diameter at the base.
