At the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, the Fish and Game Commission, in cooperation with the California Academy of Sciences, installed an extensive exhibit depicting the wild life resources of Cali- fornia. Several habitat groups of game mammals were conspicuously placed in appropriate surroundings. To the south was a fine group of desert mountain sheep, to the west a group of black-tailed deer and to the north a typical hunter's camp among redwoods. In the camp were hung some of the different species of game birds, and tree squirrels and mountain blue jays were to be seen perched in the trees overhead. Between the major groups and placed in rocky caves were a black bear watching her cubs at play, and a mountain lion guarding her kittens. Fig, 3. Studies in deer locomotion. Photographs by E. W.
