Several thousand murres were observed using the high cliffs on the northeast 
coast of Coats Island. On Walrus Island, a small island about 10 miles north of 
Woats Island, 30 walrus were recorded, 
On the flight up the Thelon River from Beverly Lake to Eyeberry Lake 37 
musk-oxen were observed, Ail musk-oxen seen were within one-fourth of a mile 
of the stream. Because only part of the stream was covered in the flight, a total 
count of these animals was not possible but the total is known to be considerably 
greater than 37 head.
