Beige-printed softcovers, salmon-coloured outline map of Montana on front cover, border in burgandy (minor chipping head & foot of spine, & to couple corners, minor dustsoiling), still VG- copy. First edition of this exceedingly scarce original and well illustrated report. The Montana Legislature in 1913-1914 codified a number of fish and game laws, and established the Game and Fish Commission in order to adjust hunting seasons, bag limits, license hunters and fishermen who were rapidly decreasing the numbers of game animals and fish, as well as try and legislate against water pollution through cyanide, and other pollutants introduced by mining interests in the State. Montana had established a number of fish hatcheries to feed many of the small landlocked lakes & ponds which were rapidly being depleted by intrepid sportsmen dynamiting the habitats and harvesting the fish. There are descriptions of hunting bear in Flathead County, with a photo of the "Famous Lady Hunter" standing over her trophy; descriptions of deer hunting and remonstrations against poachers, especially with those continuing to kill the "Bull Moose" which had been barred by State law. Of additional interest are the photos and detailed description of the Montana State "Fish Car 'Thymallus'" featuring banks of specially fitted aerated aquariums for transporting hatchery fish for license paying sportsmen, followed by tables of the 10s of 1000s of fish released. Also included are statistics on poaching arrests, jail sentences, and fines.
