Feathers. Jan. 9, 1934. 500+ ft., Colorado R., 14 mi. N. E. Searchlight, Clark Co., Nevada. Canis latrans. Numerous coyote tracks were seen in the mud at the river's edge, where recently made beaver tracks showed. It appeared as tho the coyote had been investigating the beaver scent. Jan. 15, 1934. I caught a coyote today in a setting I had made especially for that species. As the setting is des- cribed in my "running account", I will just state that no coyotes have visited my ordinary trap settings. In fact, it has been my exper- ience that they are seldom caught in a steel trap when bait is prominently displayed. This coyote showed no disposition to attack me, even when closely approached. It merely tried to escape. Stomach contents: Mesquite beans. Jan. 20, 1934. Coyotes serenaded us this evening. There were two barking, from points a half mile distant from one another.
