They Eat Up the Mountain Forests and Cause Floods. The wild goat of Hawail in recent years became a serious menace to ag- riculture in various parts of the ter- ritory. Secure among the aimost in accessible cliffs the mountains, thousands of these nimble animals find a congenial home, and, although no systematic efforts have as yet been gurated for exterminating them, y are nevertheless extremely Wary bi difficult to approach. . California apd Australia have had their scourgés of rabbits, and various western states still have their 'trou- bles in combating prairie dogs and gophers, but these pests injure the ag- riculturist directly by attacking his growing crops, while, on the other hand, the goats of Hawail do the same thing indirectly by ruining the mountain for- ests, which conserve the rainfall on which the water for irrigation pur- poses is dependent. This was not for a long time appreciated, but of late years, with the rapid increase in the number of goats, it has become very apparent. In some sections of the mountain districts, once heavily wood- ed, there is now scarcely any vegeta- tion at all, due solely to the destrue- tive feeding of the goats. Goat hunting is a popular diversion in some parts of the territory and as a sport is by no means to be despised. Although the animals are numerous, it requires some hard tramping and climbing" to get to their haunts, and then a true aim and good eye for dis- tance in order to have much success. Occasionally parties are organized and a week or more spent in goat shooting, with the result that sometimes several hundred are slaughtered. Were it not for he injurious characteristics of the little animals the slaughter wuld seem wanton yp the extreme, for no value is placed on the carcass, gud it is usually eft where it falls. Indo, the charac: ter of the mountaing would often make it difficult to secure the quarry after it is shot, and it is only in case of an especially large animal, which the hunter may desire to secure as a tro- phy, that any attempt is ever made to recover the body. The fact that there market for the ski prevents their being hunted for any other purpose than the sport or in order to reduce their numbers where they have come especially trgublesome. Could some use be found for the skins, there is no doubt that a gfgat numer could be secured at little cost. The goats are of the common, back yard, tin can eating variety transplanted here years ago, and, finding the conditions espe- cially congenial, they have increased very rapidly after breaking away from the dominion of man.-- Forest and Stream. of seems to be no » Photographing the Stomach.
