For several years the story has been
extensively circulated that the natives
OF Alaska are acquainted with living
mammoths. The probable origin o.
the story was pointed out az Il recent
meeting OF the Biological society OF
Washington by Mr. c. II. Townsend.
In 1885. when he was in Alaska. some
OF the natives questioned him concern
ing the nature of the giant animal
whose bones are not infrequently found
there. and he drew restorations of the
mammoth in order to show them how
It looked when living They were
greatly interested in the picture and
made copies of them. These copies,
he thinks, have been widely scattered
through Alaska, and being found by
white men in the hands of the natives,
have given rise to the belief that the
prehistoric beasts still inhabit that
country.
