had been taken about a week ago,
but was thrown away, without even
taking the skin off. The conversation
with the people here, especially those
that trap during the winter, we
have found out that locally the
following fur animals are taken:
Mountain lion-
Bob cat-
Coyote (Valley)
Gray Fox (common)
Red Fox (rare)
Striped Skunk (common)
Spotted " ("")
Weasel-
Brush Rabbit (not common)
This evening from 4 to 5:30 when
it was dark, I hunted up a creek
bottom that was bordered on one side
by a meadow with fairly high grass,
partly under snow and shot another
Pipilo fusces and saw and heard
Hairy woodpeckers, Robins, Lark Jays,
and Hummingbirds. A line of 35
traps was set along and bordering
on the creek, some in the snow and
some not.
