In the district about
Ootsa Lake, B.C. [British Columbia] moose are
abundant, frequenting
particularly the swampy,
willow covered river
deltas. About the
mouth of the Tahtsa
river we on July 17, 1936
saw 1 moose, including
a cow with twin calves.
The trappers report that
during the winter they
find large numbers of
moose pulled down by
the wolves.
In deep snow the calves
frequently starve, as the
older animals, breaking
trail ahead eat most
of the food + the little
fellows are unable
to obtain sufficient
food.
