If a deer or moose hunter
receives a buckskin jacket this
Christmas, it may well be made
from the hide of an animal he
downed himself.
More than 5,000 Oniario
hunters contribute their deer and
moose hides to Indian craftsmen
who.-make them into a variety of
fringed and beaded jackets,
mitts, slippers and mukluks.
The annual donation of hides
by hunters helps the native
craftsmen to retain their
traditional skills, and their
finished .products find a ready
market among Ontario residents
and tourists.
Hides are collected at various
drop-off points across the
province--usually the field offices
and, game checking stations
opera ted by the Ministry -of
Natural Resources. 'The hides arc
treated to prevent spoilage and
forwarded to a tannery.
, The tanned' hides are
distributed to Ontario's Indian
craftsmen by the Department of
Indian Affairs and Northern
Development. The craftsmen are
charged only 90 cents a square
foot,_, a good bargain when
coMpared with the market value
which trends upwards from $2.25
a square foot.
The finished garments and
footgear are shipped to the
.department's central warehouse
in Ottawa where they are
examined by buyers for the trade.
Some items are purchased for
large stores, some for, small
stores and some for Indian
friendships centres which are
•located throughout the province.
Hide collecting was on a
hit-arid.thiss basis until the
Thunder Bay Branch of the
Ontario Federation of Anglers
and Hunters took it over as a
project in 1969, As the Federation
spread the Word, the hide flow
increased from only 300 to more
than 2,000 in 1969. At this point,
the enterprise was turned over to
the Ministry of Natural
Resources,,
Ah increased number of
hunters from souther'' Ontario'
were attracted to the idea, and
the hide donation reached the
5,000 leVel in 1912.

collections help Ontario

assistance in helping our -native
