Excerpt from Provincial Museum of Natural History and Anthropology: Report for the Year 1953 Chain Island has not been live-trapped to determine success of the introduction there. However, a very close scrutiny of the undercover was made from time to time throughout the year by Mr. Hardy and the Museum Biologist. _we found no evidence of cutting, runways, or droppings.' It is believed that the family of young mice introduced there succumbed. If this is verified by the pending live - trap programme, a pair of meadow mice (microtus townsendi) shall be released this spring. Two of these animals are now in captivity at the Museum. Investigations and information received from residents on South Trial Island indi cate an unsuccessful introduction there. Mr. Hardy and _the Museum Biologist could find no evidence of droppings or cuttings on the island, and Mr. Evans, the light-keeper, has seen no mice, nor their Sign, about his buildings. In view of the ample evidence present on North Trial Island, we are fairly certain that Peromyscus are not reproducing on this island, although it is possible one or two of _the same sex may have survived. A complete programme of snap-trapping and an elapse of considerable time must ensue before a new introduction is. Made, unless Microtus are utilized.
