Met Dr. Clyde Herreid who has done considerable work on temperature regulation & has worked with ptarmigan. He will be teaching at U.of Buffalo in the fall. Dr.Wright made a deal with me to trap or shoot one two Hoary Marmots in the Cabinet Mtus of Montana for $50. He has made several trips there and has never been able to secure any or see any though various novices have reported them. The Cabinets remain as the big hole in his data on marmot distribution which he is trying to ready for publication.
