Do you know that the Alaska Game i
Commission introduced elk, dear, beaver, 1
muskrats and rabbits to the Kodiak- j
Afognak Island group only a, few years
ago? They did, an' all the experiments
j .re nor listed as successful. ' "rith the
,with the continued support and coopers
jion of the public in protection and
ui:•.na.gemr.nt of th..sc anp othcr animals,
they can b^ increased to a . valuable
recreational and economic resource.
The degree of pleasure wo derive ■
iron1 wildlife is based upon it’s variety
abundance aid distribution. It is indeed*!
a pleasure to everyone to go for a short
walk or car ride and be abl- to observe
a variety of animals and birds in their
'native haunts. The sight of beaver,
jmuskrats and rabbits is accessible to
jus all within a short distance from 1
town, and the many beaver dams and
houses in beautiful settings offer vari
ety to the subjects for amateur photo
jgraphors. It is rot difficult to she
idocr on Long Island, and elk are often
’seen from Afognak village. It is not
unreasonable to belli ava that in time
wo mn.y have deer as close to Kodiak as
the small game and furbearers.
Observing: and studying v/ildili c in
their natural habitat offers on_; of the
cleanest, healthiest and most interest
ing recreations for children and adults
;alike. Children should bo taught at an
joarly ago hov: to cnjoy wildlife without
ja gun. Hunting with a camera requires
.more skill, and pictures are a- source
jof pleasure to ourselves and others.
The wildlife is yours and Mine, so
Slot us on joy and protect it, and not tol
jeratc any "chiseling”. I will bo ready
land only too willing at all times . to
answer questions and assist you in wild
life problems.
