NOVEMBER 1926
4 Hunters about Riversdale were
greatly excited over what was
thought to be the presence of a
black bear in the neighbouring
woods. Tracks diseovered in the
swamp were such as a good-sized
bear might make. A number of
hunters got together with a view to
rounding up the marauder. hi the
organized hunt Vic Pettipiece.shot
and killed a large Canadian lynx,
owner of the mysterious tracki.
The animal weighed 26 pounds
with large long legs, which when
stretched out to full length
measured 7 feet. The lynx had
been a rare animal in the settled
parts,of the province, but no doubt
a' few still survived in' the great
swamp of Greenock.
