Excerpt from Mining Operations in the Province of Quebec for the Year 1904
There is an abundance of small game throughout the region, the different varieties of partridge and duck, also hares. We saw but little large game, but from the results of the Indians' hunting we learned that there are many caribou, black bears and lynx. There are neither moose, red deer nor wolves. Many Indian families make a livelihood by trapping fur-bearing animals such as beaver, marten and mink.
