Letter from Arthur Walbridge North to Theodore Roosevelt
Arthur Walbridge North has sent President Roosevelt the hide of a bighorn sheep which he hunted in Lower California, Mexico. He did not send the head as he donated it to his alma mater, the University of California, Berkeley, but he sends a photograph of the sheep after it was shot. While he was in Mexico, North learned about two types of lions, designated as mountain lions and pumas, with distinct physical and behavioral characteristics.
