Excerpt from Mammals and Birds of Alaska Experiments have been made in the introduction of game animals that could subsist upon certain foods not much utilized by native Alaskan species.

It is believed that the larger neighboring island of Kodiak will at some time be naturally stocked from this herd.

Excerpt from Birds and Mammals of the Stikine River Region of Northern British Columbia and Southeastern Alaska In years past the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology has conducted several expeditions to the coast of southeastern Alaska, covering in all a large part of that district, and one to Vancouver Island, British Columbia, nearby and of somewhat similar character.1 As one result of this field work the Museum has obtained a representative collection of the birds and mammals of this strongly characterized northwestern coast region of North America. Of the closely adjacent interior of British Columbia, however, the Museum contained no specimens whatever.

Popular guidebook providing general descriptions of the geography wildlife of Alaska. Pictures and maps indicating distribution of the big game, the fur animals and the birds are included.
Excerpt from Animal and Plant Resources of Alaska Prior to the present Alaska Game uat, enacted in 1925, the regulation of game; land fur animals, and birds in the Territory was divided among several Federal agencies designated by Congress. Laws were inadequate and gradually became impracticable of enforcement. Uhder these conditions both game and fur animals were diminishing in numbers in many sections ef the Territory. The administration of Alaskan wildlife resources was there fore placed'under the Bureau of Biological Survey, then in the Department of Agriculture but now in the Department of the Interior, and with the Bureau of Fisheries, eonsolidated to formfthe Fish and Wildlife Service. The Alaska Game Law is administered through the Alaska Game Commission, composed of.five members appointed by the Secretary of the Interior, one each from the four judicial divisions, and the fifth.member, the chief resident representative of the Fish and Wildlife Service, Who also is the executive officer of the Commission. The Fish and Wildlife Service, in close cooperation with the Commission, conducts research work in the Terri tory with the primary object of determining best means of developing and maintaining the wildlife resources.'a number of wildlife refuges have been established.in Alaska to as sure the presevation and restoration of various species of wild birds and animals. In addition, the Mount mckinley National Park, Glacier bay'na tional Monument, and Katmai National Monument provide wildlife sanctuary.

Excerpt from Report Upon Natural History Collections Made in Alaska Between the Years 1877 and 1881, Vol. 3: Arctic Series of Publications Issued in Connection With the Signal Service, U. S. Army It seems proper to add a. Brief statement of the manner in which the volume has been pre pared and my own connection with it. Upon' his return from Alaska in 1881, Mr. Nelson at Once began work upon the ornithological portion of the present volume, intending later to take up reports upon his collections of Mammals and Fishes. The ornithological report was well advanced towards completion when failing health, directly traceable to exposure in the North, compelled an abrupt cessation of labor and an imme diate departure-of Mr. Nelson for the West, where he has Since resided. Meantime the entire subject of the nomenclature of North American Birds has been revised, and a check list issued by the American Ornithological Union. In addition a number of reports upon, and partial lists of, Alaska birds have been issued. It thus seemed very desirable that Mr. Nelson's report upon Alaskan birds, covering, as was intended, the whole territory, should be revised and brought up to date.
