THE FUR SEALS OF THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS. 



ST. I'AI I. l-l \ M 1886. 



1 The killings on Sivutch Rock occur only at intervals in the winter or early spring when no seals are left on St. Paul. 

 The natives go to the island in boats, killing the seals and bringing the carcasses home for food. No seals are killed on the 

 rock in the breeding season. 



2 The relative number of drives between June 4 and July 26 in this year should be noted in contrast to the number 

 required in 1880 between June 1 and July 17. The extension of* the season of driving ten days is also significant.
