This muskox is the only one ever seen
outside of the Arctic regions. 1t is con-
sidered rare curiosity because none of
its species has ever been captured before.
This animal is not far from 1S months old
and weighs about 300 pounds. 1t was cap
tured in March of this year somewhere
on the barren lands east of Lyngton Bay,
a branch of Lady Franklin Bay, some 700
miles northeast of the Mackenzie River,
taken by party of Esquimaux Indians.
The animal now is completely tame and
Is more docile than an ordinary domestic
cow. though it is much larger for its age
and looks ferocious. The Indians at this
time killed eighteen full grown animals,
which included the males and females.
Three of last years calves were captured
by them, one being badly wounded, and
the other two not being harmed. The
one that was wounded died of its injuries
and the mate to this one was killed by
the Indian dogs at Herschel Islands
The great value attached to this animal
is that 1t inhabits a portion Of the earth
which has never yet been visited by hu-
man beings. In all the records Of the ex-
plorers, Nansen, Perry and others, who
have visited those northern regions in
search of the north pole. each day their
logbook notes what they have seen and
found in the most extreme northern re-
gionS, and the muskox at all times Is en-
tered in prominent place In those rec
ords, which shows that, as far as we
try in the circle bounded by the north
pole. If there is land at the north pole
there is no doubt that this animal lives
there also.
Owing to the extreme difficulty in reach
ing these lands, no live specimen is to be
found on the face of the earth from those
regions, except the muskox which is now
on exhibition. Considering this and the
fact that actually there is not, nor ever
has been, an animal captured and brought
from those regions before, this animal is
rare curiosity which all should see.
In addition to this, there is also on ex-
hibition at 427 Bush street some rare and
valuable curiosities from the Arctic re-
gions which are possessed of great inter
est. The price of admission is very
popular one, namely, 10 cents. As stated
above, the muskox will be on exhibition
to-day at the entrance of Golden Gate
