- Rangifer.
Jasper. May 4, 1944.
Fred Brewster, who was all through
the Tonquin area with the army
this winter saw no caribou on Astoria
Creek but ran into about 20
on Portal Creek some 3 miles up
from the highway. They had
been there for some time + were
feeding largely on willows.
Wells tells me that a bunch of 10
or so used to winter just above
the cabin on the Whirlpool, also
that others can usually be found
on Meadow Creek. A small band
wintered opposite Snake Indian falls
when he had the Blue Creek district
he saw 5 there when he first counted
them + 35 when last seen.
Jasper. May 6/44 [1944]
Read Dr [doctor] Hammets article in "the Backlog"
+ note that he saw 24 caribou at the head
of Mowitch Creek the day after he passed
us.
Willow Creek. May 23/43 [?]
Rufe Neighbor + Jud Groat state that
caribou have decreased somewhat
in recent years, the Indians say the
same thing.
