Abstract
IN several English periodicals that have reached me I find reference to the correspondence in the Times concerning a suggestion emanating from Toronto that our barren-ground caribou might be driven in large numbers into corrals by means of aeroplanes and slaughtered in order to increase the meat supply. Such a suggestion has naturally created some alarm in the minds of many naturalists, sportsmen, and others in England, and hopes have been expressed that no such scheme would be permitted.
