California Fox is said to surpass those of

THE RACCOON.
It is not claimed that the above is any
relation to that “same old coon” about
which we have heard so much in other
days. Itis a native of California, and,
upon examination, will be found to be
different in many respects from the Coon
of other States. The drawing is perfect,
and is so taken as to enable the reader to
view the animal in all its points. We
are informed that, at certain seasons of
the year, these Coons are to be found in
great numbers along the upper Sacramento. We presume, however, they are
confined to no particular section of the
State. The California Coon is a beautiful
animal, and we do not see how we could
have got along without it in our series of
sketches. In the above engraving we
have secured it in the happiest style.
