The animal was killed September by Pete Lydall of Lisianski Strait, and its skin measured five feet eight inches square.

To Hunt For More Lydall had been told of the glacier bears by Joe Ibach. a registered guide at Lisianski Straits, vised that the Smithsonian Insti- tute is interested in them. Lydall says he believes there are more of them near Lituya glacier, intends to try to get a male and a cub to gomplete the family. The one he killed was a female. The glacier bear are not known to exist anywhere in the world except n the vicinity of Alaska ers They hibernate for a longer time n other bears, and never go far from the ice even for hibernation. They do not eat fish, existing large- ly on squirrels, marmots and ber- ries. Lydall had lost his salmon trol- ling boat and was walking on the beach near Lituya looking for it when he encountered the bear.
