Trapper Snares
Pair of Wolves;
Two More Escape
It was a case of wolf eat wolf,
when trapper Vern Donaldson
caught just a half a wolf pack
in his snares along the Matanus
ka river this week.
Mr. Donaldson fills in time un
til regular fur-trapping season
opens No. 15, with a predatory
trapping license. Noting signs of
wolves in the river region, he
placed snares there recently.
Last week he visited his trap
line and found that two of four
wolves in the pack running there
had fallen victim to his snares.
One of the trapped animals had
promptly been set upon by his
more fortunate fellows and al
most entirely devoured.
All Mr. Donaldson found re
maining in the trap was the un
eaten head and a few chewed
remains of the carcass. Bitterest
pill for him to swallow was the
fact that the forepaw, needed for
identification to claim the wolf
bounty, also had disappeared
down the gullet of escaping pack
members.
Potential Muskrat Coats
Invade Nelson Living Room
Another local resident who ex
pects to reap a rich reward from
traplines this winter, is Jimmy
Nelson, local agent for The Alas
ka Railroad. But Mr. Nelson has
an easier way than running down
to the Matanuska river to set
snares for wolves.
Mr. Nelson hopes to run his
traps in the living room of the
Nelson quarters in the heart of
Palmer. He’s confident of bounti
ful profits, for the Nelson living
room appears to have been noised
around in muskrat circles as a
pretty good spot for a rende
vous.
Only recently, Mr. Nelson had
to lay aside his paper long enough
to dispatch a healthy muskrat
specimen who had joined the
family circle and was displaying
a lively curiosity in the contents
of the latest headlines.
The Nelson basement apparent
ly was entry-way for the musk
rat. Just why a water-loving rat
should travel so far overland to
meet sudden death in a living
room is a mystery to Mr. Nelson.
However he feels his muskrat
trapping project is a better sure
fire investment than Major
Hoople’s morning-waker-machine
for late sleepers.
