Creator Transcript
  • Castor canadensis. 55 mi [miles] N.W. [northwest] Aklavik. June 25, 1947. Henry Firth saw a beaver in the river here today. We found last years alder cutting in the lake to the west of camp. Junction of channel + Peel River. June 2/47 [1947]. In the exit channel from a tundra lake today we saw fresh beaver cuttings, as well as along the channel where it was previously seen. This cutting is primarily new, we have seen none more than 2 years old, and I am inclined to believe that the beaver have but recently established themselves here. Some of the McPherson Indians report that beaver are over abundant in parts of the Peel Preserve but this should be checked on before accepted. Aklavik. July 4, 1947. Adolphus Norris says beaver occur on his area but he had a bad time protecting them. The natives shoot them for food. Reindeer Station July 9/47 [1947]. Beaver reported seen last week on Schooner channel 9 miles above Napoisk. Mrs [space left blank] reports a colony close to the station. See under B.
