ODD SEA Mammals
U. S. Expedition Finds Last
Rookery of Elephant Seals.
huge Animals, Thought to Be Extinct,
Are Found on Isolated Island Of
Guadalupe by Party Headed
by DR.. c. II. Townsend,

New York.--Naturalists Gall over the
world are greatly interested just now
In beach some 400 yards long by 80
in width on the isolated island of
Guadalupe. Here on this remote and
uninhabited island, lying in the Pacific
ocean, 140 miles off the northern part
of the peninsula of Lower California
has been discovered the only rookery
left and the last standhold on the
western continent of the northern ele
plant seal. This, is the largest of all
seals, long since thought to have dis
peared, and likewise one of the most
remarkable marine mammals existing
today. ~
Aside from it's great size, Is feet
and more, the chief feature of interest
of these animals is conferred in the
strange appearance of the head, caused
by elephant-like trunk or snout, meas
| uring in the adult males nearly foot
or more in length. The rediscovery
of this, the only herd Of northern ele-
plant seals living today, was made by
DR.. Charles H. Townsend, who com
manded an expedition on the United
States Fisheries Steamship Albatross
to Lower California to study the fish
cry resources and to obtain specimens
of this region.
Being valuable for it's oil, the ele-
plant seal was killed in large num-
bers for commercial purposes until it
was thought to be practically extinct.
The oil is worth about SO cents a gal
Ion. A 16-foot elephant seal is said
to yield from 200 to $50 gallons of oil.
The colony of seals found by DR..
Townsend was scattered in family
groups along the beach, and watched
the landing party in their boats with
apparent Indifference. The herd con-
sisted chiefly of large males, females,
yearling and newborn pups. A num-
Der of adult females were surrounded
by newly-born young, and the indica-
lions were that the breeding season
was just commencing at this time of
year, which was March, and therefore
it was thought that other adult fe-
males would arrive later.
The seals had little fear O. man,
which afforded unusual oppol tunities
for securing close-range Photographs
showing them in their various atti-
tudes. Unless actually leased by the
members of the party the old animals
did not attempt to leave the beach,

and many of them did not raise their
heads from the sand until closely ap-
preached, although wide awake. When
driven from comfortable resting
place they would soon settle down,
and, after throwing sand on their
backs with their front flippers, become
quiet again. Both young and old have
the habit of covering themselves with
sand when settling down to rest. The
females, although but little molested,
appeared to be even more passive than
the males. Some of the large males
after being driven into the sea soon
returned.
The most striking and remarkable
feature of this animal, and from which
it takes it's name, is curious elongat-
ed trunk or snout which attains
length equal to the remainder of the
head. This thick and heavy append
age has length Of ten inches or more
forward from the canine teeth and is
fibrous and fleshy throughout. When
fully expanded it exhibits three. bulg-
ing transverse folds on top separated
by deep grooves. The trunk is not
capable Of imitation, but is retracted
into heavy folds on top of the head by
muscular action. This snout is some
what protrusible, but when not
elongated hangs in pendulous fash
ion over the mouth; when sleeping it
rests upon the sands, shapeless
mass.

them food, raiment, light and fuel.
They are very skillful seal hunters
and expert boatmen. The boats are
made of skins stretched taut over a
rigid frame and some Of them are ex-
ceedingly difficult to manage.
The beach at Nome is wide and
sandy and the Eskimo enjoy the time
they spend there. Tents are pitched,
but the shelter of the great boats turn
ed on their sides is depended upon to
a large extent. Cheap cooking uten-
sils bought at the stores have replaced
many of the crude dishes formerly
used, and sometimes an old stove is
seen in use.
The Eskimo men are rather skillful
with tools, and the women do certain
kinds of needlework expertly. The
heavy garments of skin are remark
ably we'll made and even the shoes of
skin are fashioned much more neatly
than one might expect. In winter
very heavy furs are worn, and the
head is covered with large hood.
The men have devised various rough,
but highly efficient tools and use them
deity to make boats, sleds and weap-
Ons.
Although the Eskimo are indescrib-
ably filthy and inclined to take advan-
tage in some ways, they are almost
invariably good natured and fond of
a joke. They are intelligent, quick to
learn from people and enjoy the games
of civilization. They are not at all
belligerent and avoid a quarrel if they
