' Most Valuable Fur Animal in the
| United States.
|
Whether It Shall Be Protected or De-
stroyed Depends on its Behavior
~Sometimes It Dees Consid-
erable Damage.
| ‘Prepared by the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture.)
Whether the muskrat, the most valu-
[able fur animal in the United States,
shall be protected or destroyed de-
| pends upon its behavior. In some cir-
| eumstances this animal becomes detri-
| mental and is responsible for consider-
| able damage to growing crops, irriga-
tion ditches, milldams, ete. Where the
| animal is not troublesome, biologists
| of the U. 8. department of agriculture
suggest that it be protected and trap-
ped for fur. Even where the animal
| has become somewhat of a pest, fis
numbers often may be kept down by
! trapping, while the sale of pelts makes
| such activities profitable. Often crops
may be protected by the erection of
wire-mesh fences between them and
the marsh or pond where the animals
live. Such fences should reach at least
| gix Inches beneath the surface of the
ground to prevent the muskrat bur-
rowing under,
Where the animals prove trouble-
some bY causing breaks in embank-
ments, dams, and in the sides of irri-
i gation ditches, probably the most prac.
tical remedy is to employ a trapper
and hunter to patrol the property both
night and day. In narrow waterways
barrel traps have proved efficient In
catching large numbers of these ani-
mals,
owners of embankments, dams, etc,
may guard against injuries to their
property by muskrats, A more general
| use of concrete, for example, has
