Creator Transcript
  • 47 Aug [August] 30. [1929] Kamloops B.C. [British Columbia] The young mice taken on Aug [August] 4. are still alive + healthy. I have been feeding them on Tomatoes, clover apple, cheese, peanut butter, melon seeds, berries, rolled oats + brown bread. Of these they like the bread least + the melon seeds most. They extract the kernel very expertly, though I'm sure they never saw any seeds resembling them before. they just know by instinct how to go about it. They show no fear upon seeing me near them, but any sudden movement or noise frightens them. They have a peculiar half singing, half whistling chirp They are fascinated by a light shone on them at night.
