Gently $1,000 was offered for single
specimen. but there are none to be had
except one very old bird in the Zoologi-
cal Gardens at Cincinnati. The whole
sale slaughter of our birds that has
been going on for years has brought
some species to only a few survivors
within the space of few years, and in
many cases to total extinction. when
