Wire communication between
Anchorage and Seward was
interrupted recently, in the vi
cinity of Mile 17, by moose.
There are places where the
wires hang low over the tops
of the hills, and when there is
a lot of snow on the ground,
as is the case this winter, there
[ is not room under the wires
> for the moose to pass in their
. hurry to escape an approach
ing train. The wires have been
j broken several times this win
ter in the same manner. Simi
t lar trouble has been caused on
the northern end of the wire
system by roving bands of cari
bou. It is not unusual for
trains to encounter animals
on the tracks, several moose
having been killed in that man
ner during the time the rail
road has been in operation.

The herd of buffalo imported
from Montana and placed on
range in the Delta country last
summer, is readily adapting it
self to the iew environment,
according to recent observat
ions. Louis Grinsmore is said
to have seen the herd on Janu
ary 7, when he counted 17
head. He observed a large bull
evidently the leader, about 50
yards in advance of the herd..
When the bull saw him he ran
back into the herd. The ani
mals immediately formed in a
semie-circle, with their heads
lowered, facing the intruder.
Grinsmore stated that wolves
or bears would have had no
show with these animals. He
said they have developed a
long shaggy coat of hair, and
appear to be in excellent con
dition. Warden Sam O. White
later traveled ove r the range
of the buffalo. They range
from a few miles below Jarvis
Creek, on the Delta, to several
miles above, White reported.
He found they are feeding on
lupines and grass, of which
there seems to be an inexhaust
i ible supply. Judging from signs
where they have bedded down,
they are in excellent condition
and are getting plenty of nour
ishment, according to White.
