WHAT ABOUT THE WOLvEsf
Yelping Beasts Said to Frequent Ca
man Woods

The following news item has bee
clipped from a recent edition of tn
kennebec Journal:
Perley A. Emery of Canaan. an
experienced guide. has written
the commissioners of inland fish
cries and game about some
strange animals that have been
seen in the woods in the northern
part of the town of Canaan.
Emery begins his communication
by saying that deer are not as
plentiful as they were two
months ago and states he believes
they have been done away with
driven out or killed, by some
yelping beasts which frequent
the woods In the vicinity of his
home.
He writes that he first thought
the animals were dogs as they
barked like pack OF young
hounds, but later findings cause
him some doubt and he asks the
commission what the animals are.
Only once have they been seen;
they are, he says, of grayish
yellow color and run with head
and tail down. They are about
the size of shepherd dogs.
A dispatch printed in Friday
morning papers states the belief
that wolves have been killing
large numbers of deer in the
Moosehead region. Mr.. Emery
is wondering IL there are wolves
in the Somerset county town
from which he writes. Canadian
timber contains wolves but it is
generally stated that wolves have
long since departed from Maine
forests The wolf of Canada is
of grayish yellow color, and 1t
Is the habit of the wolf to stink
along with head and tail down.
Wolves do not bark like dogs,
however, except when tanned In
captivity under which conditions
they often emulate the bark OF
their nearest of kin, the dog. The
timber wolf makes himself a ter
ror by night with prolonged
howl but does not bark, and hab-
itually rests by day.
AS yet Tie independent AeS p"' ~
has determined nothing relative
the above. Investigation has nc
thrown any light on the subject an
those interviewed have not appear
ed to be aware that wolves wer
prowling in their midst. in fact ha
heard nothing regarding the presenc
of such animals.
