. California fish and game . reator of all.—Dcpt. of iJie Interior, Ottawa, Canada. NEED FOR DOE PROTECTIONOBVIOUS. A pitiful sight that ought to carry aneloquent message to every sportsman whohas killed or who may be tempted to killa doe, was met with by two hunters onOctober 4, 1919, in Bear River Canyon, about eight miles above Colfax, PlacerCounty. The sportsmen came upon a doewhich had the appearance of having beendead two, or perhaps three days, judgingfrom the condition of the carcass and bythe hoof tracks of the animal that hadbeen made previous to a light rain thathad fallen the day before. The deer hadevidently traveled some distance, afterhaving received a bullet in the lowerbowels, before she fell. The lingering death, due to poor marks-manship, in itself appeals to ones sym-pathy, aside from the fact that the law had been violated ; but that is the smallerpart of the real tragedy of that lonemountain wood. The doe was a mother, and surrounding her remains were thetiny tracks of her fawn. The does bag. r Hi. iX. A letison lUi llle pruLectlun ofdoes. Doe, mother of a fawn, killed bylaw violator. Photograph by E. M. Muse. still contained milk, and the udders werepink, as though the fawn had nursed, orattempted to do so, up to or after themother had died. What became of the little fawn? Likemany others that have been orphanedunder similar conditions, it perhaps re-mained beside its unresponsive motheruntil it fell an easy prey to coyotes; for, not far away from the dead doe, on thedry sand bar at the edge of the river, were the unmistakable stubby-toed dog-like tracks of a large coyote. It is to be hoped that such instancesas this will serve to carry a story home tothat brand of imitation sportsmen whoshoot without care or conscience.—Edward M.
