“Guess you heard about that
so-called prehistoric animal they
found down on Glacier Island,
! formerly Buck Hoyt’s fox farm,
j It was evidently released from
! Columbia Glacier and drifted
on the island, frozen solid. It
had, no doubt, been laying in the
ice in a twisted shape, like a
horseshoe, as the tail and head
| seemed to have been exposed to
j the action of the water or ele
ments and the flesh taken off
: and part of the bones on both
extremities broken or worn off.

j preserved, meat and all, which is
\ something rare.
J “The stomach and its con
| tents are intact and it is intneded
j to keep it frozen and send it to
j some laboratory to be examined
■ i so as to determine whether it
was a marine or land animal.
.! “It is of the lizard type, that
| is, the head connected directly
to the body, no long neck as is
usually associated with a prehis
toric critter. The sad part of it
is no good photo was taken of
it, weather was adverse, and the
j fox farmer, Jerry 0‘Leary, had
said nothing about it for several
j weeks; had at first thought it
j was a whale and was cutting it
i up for fox feed; he estimates he
j had cut about 1,200 to 1,500
| pounds off the carcass. The fox
! es probably don’t realize they
had a rare treat.
“The Mayor of Valdez sent old
Beyers down to take pictures,
but practically all the meat had
; been taken off by that time and
| he didn’t savvy cameras and so
didn’t get much of a picture;
j later on O’Leary moved the car
| cass and took the bones apart
| .so it could be handled for ship
i ment. Its a little over 25 feet
long overall head five feet, body
eight feet, tail twelve feet. The
estimated weight when alive
t around three tons. It evidently
i used its tail to good advantage
judging from its construction, as
, the top of the tail bones would
j interlock when the animal rear
i ed up, making a solid seat. The
flippers or fore-legs seemed to
i have had fingers or claws. They
j couldn’t see any hind legs, it is
1 possible they had been broken
off. Some say it has five and oth
ers, six pairs of ribs
A party of Valdezans chartered
a boat to go down to see it, but
the weather was very stormy
j which prohibited taking good
pictures and the rough boat ride
put the sight-seers in such con
dition that they didn’t care to
get too close to the animal, the
very strong smell didn’t go good
; after being sea-sick. If that fox
| farmer had only left the animal
; alone as it was when first dis
.. covered, kept it frozen, brought
it to town, believe he could have
made more out of it than a doz
; en ranches ever would. Its the
| first time they ever found them
; with meat on. Saw a couple
| chunks of the me w, they soy
; its like horse flesh, ho fish smell
; to it."
