Rattlesnake present but not especially on C.l. towns. Badger seen, 4 young digging up, on Scout. 1 day. Creek town after poisoning with strychnine grain. September 28, 1955. Arrived at Beef Corral town 6 a.m. of clear cool day. Sunrise 6:05 (or 1/3 of town). First C.l. out 6:20. Many out, many being in shade, lay 6:30. No predators seen at town by 7 a.m. September 28, 1955. Visited small colony to E. 200 yds., from main Beef Corral colony (100 yds. S., upslope, from Beef Corral Wash). There about 15 bison in 50 yd. square on 1070 N. slope in short Bgs. Counted 6 C.l. thin, 4 prob. juv., a detached group 50 yds. NE of there (4 rnds.) had no C.l. visible.
