- the Mitchell + as far as the head of Pitts Cr. [Creek]
Reports a heavy die off of elk in
the Palliser in winter 1908-09.
Moose very scarce. He came into
country first in 1902-03 + guided north
south of Glacier [word crossed out] Golden. It was 3 years
before he saw a moose. Shortly after
the park was established they became
very abundant on the Kootenay + Vermilion
then thinned out after badly overbrowsing
the region.
2 wolf passed up the Kootenay from
the region of Canal Flats in the Spring of
1906. They passed through the park close
to the Simpson monument + kept right
on going.
[Walter] Nixon may be the author of the oft
repeated assertion that the wolverine is
the chief predator of goat. He claims to
have seen many places in which
wolverine had killed goat, including
one bunch of 5 " but left uneaten
First elk seen were a bull +
cow that came down the Simpson
in 1904.
Fox occasional high up.
In 1927-28 he first took up steady
trapping of his line took 3 marten.
Since then the numbers have increased
to capacity. Reports that most of the marten
go high + mark the rock slides in late winter
