were killed-more bears incidentally
than were taken in all the rest of the

In 1927, 501.635 licenses were issued,
14.374 buck deer or the record thus
far, and #21 black bears were taken,
with 63 fatal and 27% non-fatal aoci-

Last year (1928) only 437,727 resident

During this season 25087 antlerless
deer were taken, and 427 bears, and 46
fatal and 238 non-fatal accidents og
curred, .
This year will be a record for the
kill of bucks beyond any doubt. From
18,000 to 25.000 should be killed if the
weather continues good. Snow flur.
ries will make visibility poor and
chances of accidents greater, No gen-
eral reports of accidents during the
door season have been received as yet,

already been killed and wounded. Com-
