pended—No Killing to Be

that killing of beuver this winter

ting killing of beaver during a lim
ited season. In the Aleutian Islands,
Alaska Peninsula and neighboring
islands, and the Southeastern Alaska
mainland and islands from Yakutat
Bay to Dixon Entrance, the season
for trapping was between December
1st and March 81st. In the rest of
the Territory It was fixed between
November 16th, and March 31st.
In the past two seasons large
numbers of [lie animals have been
killed. , Trappers and fur buyers
both have reported colonies serious
ly diminished, and, according To a
statement made by Mr. Walker sev
eral weeks ago, several interested
people had suggested rescinding the
open season regulations and protec
tion of beaver until they could re
store their colonies. In some dis
tricts. it is. reported, the animals
have been virtually exterminated.
Open season regulations relating
to marten, land,. otter and mink,
are allowed to remain in force at
least for the present.
