I visited Walter Nelson this evening at his home here at Rupert; He is trapping & poisoning in Big Lost River, Little Lost River, Pahsimeroi; and Birch Creek valleys. He has taken 113 coyotes in that region since Oct. 15. I got one skull of a Coyote from him that was taken near the head of Little Lost River Valley. He took two Striped Skunk but did not save them. Will get skulls.
