shores; the Otters fish the streams; and the Sea Otter finds its 
a i 
inny food in the deep ocean. The r oot of the Badger suggests the 
lole’s; that of the Weasel the Squirrel's; while the .Unk has a 
partially webbed foot; and the land otter and Sea Otter have their 
pedal extremities fully webbed and otherwise admirably adapted for 
an aquatic life. Comparison of the tails of the Badger, Wolverine 
Weasel, Skunk, and Otter shows a corresponding diversity of form 
correlated to their different uses and requirements.
