Interesting Stories About Klamath Animals
and Efforts in Their Behalf
y Ida Monty Odell
It was a gloomy night, with
an icy wind blowing in off the
lake, when Bob Oliver, return
ing from an evening in town,
turned through his gate off the
highway to find his road block
ed by a parked car. Thinking
some youngsters from town
were enjoying a ride, Mr. Oliver
backed up to give the intruder
room to get out. When the other
car had pulled out the Olivers
started down their farm road
and their headlights immediate
ly revealed the purpose of the
trespasser as a family of helpless
kittens scurried away from the
beam of light. Abandoned in the
cold the little things sought
shelter in nearby brush and have
become pitiful objects, half-
starved, wild and hunted.
The Olivers, who have more
than the usual quota of human
kindliness, have been imposed
on many times by townspeople
who have dumped unwanted
cats in their fields. In some in
stances they have been able to
relieve the suffering which fol
lows this abandonment, but this
is not easy, as the poor scared
little animals scurry to cover
on the approach of man. Ray
mond Cox, who with his sister.
Miss Gertrude, owns the Bark-
ley Springs ranch, has had many
experiences ot a like nature.
Tossed out in their fields to be
come waifs, or die a lingering
death from starvation and cold
as winter comes on, many kit-j
tens and grown cats roam the
hills behind the homes in that
vicinity. j
This week a mother dog with
two female puppies were aban
doned on a lawn on Pine street.
The owner of the property
called the Humane society which
picked them up and will either .
i place them in homes or dispose
of them in a humane way
It is so easy to drive out to
the kennels and leave unwanted
animals that it really seems un
intelligent to drive to Algoma,
Rocky Point, or Lakeshore Gar
dens and dump helpless things
to starve.
Not only is It easier to leave

it is safer, for the law provides
that any person maliciously
abandoning an animal to starve
shall be punished by a fine of
not less than $10.00 or more
than $100.00 andor Imprison
ment. Another pitiful abuse of our
dumb friends, and the word
"friends" is used intentionally,
is the shooting of the beautiful
little birds popularly known as
"wild canaries." These little fel
lows abound on the Roosevelt
school grounds where boys hunt
them down with the BB guns
which are often injudiciously

placed In their hands by fond
parents. It is no unusual thing
to find from six to twenty of
these little birds dead on the
school lawn, and the gun in the
hands of these boys oftei: takes
a window when it doesn't get a
bird. Witness the number of
panes now ready for replace
ment In the Roosevelt school. If
ordinary kindness did not curb
this cruel practice, self-interest
should stop lliis slaughter, for,
whether or not it is generally
known, this particular species of
bird is one of the best extermin
ators of dandelions to be found
They not only eat the seeds with
relish but can be noticed busily
digging their sharp little bills
down into the heart of the dan
delion for the tender green bud
which left to mature will pro
duce many more of these weeds
In contrast with the callous
attitude assumed by those who
commit the crimes mentioned is
