Halfmerston 1939 Sciurus hudsonicus July 27 Stayawile Spq, 5150 ft., Columbia Co., Wash. About 7:00 P.M. while walking thru the woods near camp, had the opportunity & observe the eye-shine in this species. It is a relatively dull orange-golden combination and appears quite large. The specimen was a young one, and was not collected. July 28 Johnson and myself collected this nearly(?) adult specimen. I shot at the male first with a .410 shell "12 load", and then a 16 gauge "10 load", apparently slightly hitting the individual each time. Johnson then fired a .38 half load shot when the specimen ran half way up a tree. It was still alive altho considerably injured, and was necessary to shake the tree to unloose the specimen & then finish the slaughter. The animals seem to be very tenacious, for this one had a broken hind leg besides many other shots in the body, altho he was still alive and kicking.
