- Odocoileus virginianus. [underlined]
Kootenay Park., B.C. April 29/43. [1943]
Saw first whitetails 2 mi [miles] W. [west] of Vermilion
Crossing on river bars, 2 others lying
on bars a mile or so further down
still others in lodgepole pine woods
near Kootenay Crossing. In all 15 seen
4 were [male symbol], 2 [female symbol] + 1 fawn of last year. Others
not id. [identifiable] as to sex + age.
These deer had extraordinary long tails
marked by a strongly black tip
+ showing a narrow white fringe.
H.U. Green of Banff reports from
heresay whitetails present in summer
about Herberts Lake 3-4 mi [miles] N [north] of L. [lake] Louise.
The dog-like loping gait of these
deer was very noticeable after the
constant association with mule deer.
Banff, B.C. June 8/43. [1943]
Saw 4 whitetail does, Two feeding in
a sedgemeadow at 96 mile on the
Jasper Highway and two on the
roadside at 92 mile.
Speed:- The latter two ran 27 mph [miles per hour] for
about 200 yards.
Wintering:- These deer must have wintered
in the Sask. [Saskatchewan] valley as they could not
yet have crossed the passes from
the west.
