Observers claim that on the

average only one . year in four favor the brant breeding and that in the off years the losses among the young total 90 per cent of the hatc . In 1938. due to causes beyond human control, the eastern brant had reached a very low ebb in numbers, and fear was expressed in well informed circles that this particular species was in danger of extinction.

Thus it is all the more gratify- ing to learn that these splendd birds, in spite of the eel grass failure and the hazards attendant

upon their breeding, are gaining ground. Brant (excepting the black

species of the Pacific coast) are protected throughout the year in Canada and the United States.
