The | hares were captured by native In- | dians under supervision of !hn} Alaska Game Commission with | funds made available by the Civil | Works Administration. { The project was a difficult and delicate task owing to the frail nature of the snowshoe hares in | captivity. Three previous attempts by private parties to seed the: highly desirable animals on Kodiak‘ ended in total failure by reason | of all the hares dying while en-| route. In the present venture, in which every precaution | was taken to insure animal reaching Kodiak in heal con- dition, nearly 300 hares were cap- tured and their habits studied be-/ fore shipment was made. Of this number 162 were finally liberated on the island.
