Adolph Young of Sunrise, who has
been trapping in the Chickaloon coun- •
try says that the moose have yarded
up in that country in such numbers'
that they have stripped all of the
young trees of bark, and that a few of
the trappers in that section go out
daily and cut down birch trees for the
hungry animals. The moose line up
near the tents and cabins of the trap- j
pers, and when they see one of the
men come out and start for the trees
with an ax over his sholder, they fol
low him as cattle do the farmer when
he starts for the haystack. When a
tree is dropped, they crowd up to feed
and have nj^ fear of their natural
enemy, man.
