life have been found on the shores of
Lake Morat, the bones and skeletons

being due to its former Inhabitants.
That the lame Is old is shown by the
fact that no beavers have lived in
Switzerland since the twelfth or thir-
tenth century.
Brown bears were plentiful in the
mountain lands until the seventeenth
century. The last one killed Of which
there is any official knowledge came
