Report Of Chief Of Bureau Of Biological Survey 1920 Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from Report of the Acting Chief of the Biological Survey for 1901 During the year complaints concerning the depredations of prairie dogs have been received from. About 325 correspondents in the plains region of the West. These complaints came from nearly 300 localities, distributed chiefly in the States of Colorado, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, South Dakota, Texas, and the Territory of Oklahoma, and indicate that in many sections of these States the destruction of prairie dogs is one of the most serious questions confronting the farmer or cattle owner. In the last annual report attention was called to the necessity for a thorough investigation of the subject, and the need of making provision for carrying on the work; but the necessary appro p'riation was not made by Congress, and the Division is therefore unable, at present, to undertake a comprehensive study of the question.
