FIRES ENDANGER GAME
ForesCßlazes Do More Damage Than
Hunters Californian Says.
Sacramento. Cal. Sept. 19.—The
numerous forest fires in Northern Cal
ifornia have destroyed more game than
all the hunters since the present open
season began is the opinion of George
Neale executive officer of the state
fish and game commission.
The deer and quail suffer most from
forest fires. Neale said.
A large tire on the game refuge tn
Siskiyou county will mean the de-
struction of many deer Neale de-
clared.
The game congregate on this refugr
where hunters are not allowed to tres
pass.
Deers seem to have an instinct to
go where they wiil not be shot. Nea''
said but a fo-est fire bewilders them.
They lose all sense of* control and
wander aimlessly in front of the fire
until they are cremated nr strike a
stream which if it is wide enough
saves them.
Quail also are apt to be bewildered
by a forest fire he said.
These birds are habitats of the
brush and as they are ow flying the
fire consumes them as it rages through
the forest.
A herd of elk is menaced by a fire
in Lake. Colusa and Glenn counties
Neale reports.
The elk are on a game refuge.
