Enemies [underlined]
[James (Jim)] Simpson tells me that a friend of his
Sid [Sidney Joseph] Unwin, prior to the last war, was
hunting 2 goat down at Kananaskis.
A grizzly beat him to it + killed
a young billy. Unwin shot the
bear but not before it had eaten
one quarter.
[James (Jim)] Simpson himself watched a goat [word crossed out] grizzly
with 2 young cubs stalking a goat at
lake O Hara [O'Hara] - he interrupted the beast.
Fighting:- [James (Jim)] Simpson tells me he has seen
goats fighting. They attempt to push
the opponent off balance + then to
hook him in the flank. He has
shot several goats with the abdomen
punctured, intestines holed - peritonitis
present. Especially mentioned head of
Siffleur
