Caiiis latrans. Coyote. 



J. E. Fischer reported in 1920 that coyotes had appeared 

 and become numerous in the region at the north end of Lake 

 Gogebic within the last few years. We have secured several 

 skulls and skeletons taken by him in 1920-21. 



Vulpes fulva. Red Fox. 



Mountain-heath, signs. 



Signs of fox were found in late August in a narrow growth 

 of heath at the top of a clifif about a mile north of Lake 

 Gogebic Station. J. E. Fischer has sent us a fox taken in 

 January, 192 1, in Gogebic County near Gogebic Lake. Ben- 

 amin J. Twombley reports that a few occur in the Cisco Lake 

 Region. J. E. Marshall, in 191 1, reported that a few occurred 

 around Gogebic Lake.
