Creator Transcript
  • Castor canadensis. [underlined] Reindeer Station July 10, 1947. Examined a colony near here said to contain 9 animals plus this year's increase. There are three small bank lodges. Or at least 3 places where some sticks and mud have been placed on the bank. Water depths at several points in front of houses from 7 to 9 1/2 ft. [feet] Lake scarcely floods. Food. Mainly willow - specimen taken - but also eating alder with willow still available. Age:- This colony is 4 years old. Reindeer Station July 16/47 [1947] Mr P. Hogan states that he is told that there are quite a few beaver further down the river in Holmes creek + that one was seen on the northern tip of Richards Island this spring. Reindeer Station July 17, 1947. A small colony on the lake to the east of the river just a mile or two above the station food is largely willow. Apparently the Eskimos have the idea that we have counted the beaver wherever we have been + will be unlikely to touch them for fear we will spot the results.
