Excerpt from A Study of the Sharp-Tailed Grouse When it became evident in the fall of 1932 that a south ward emigration Of sharp - tailed grouse was taking place in parts of northern Ontario and Quebec, the Royal Ontario Museum of Zoology undertook the gathering of facts relative to the population involved and on the status of sharp-tailed grouse in general. A questionnaire was circulated among correspondents and Observers distributed throughout Canada who kindly CO - operated by contributing a rather extensive record of Observations. The compilation of this record gave a very satisfactory account of the numbers, distribution, habits, and behaviour Of these northern grouse during their southward movement in the fall and winter of 1932-3, and a general idea as to the status of the species as a whole in Canada. To allow for the incorporation of some remarks on the aftermath Of the emigration of northern sharp-tailed grouse in the east, a report on the subject was delayed and a later questionnaire distributed the following year. This second questionnaire was directed toward the status of the species, more particularly the emigrants, during the spring, summer, and fall of 1933. The Circulation of questionnaires constitutes a survey which cannot be accomplished in any other way. The Museum wishes to thank the correspondents who have CO Operated, collectively, since the large number of persons con cerned prevents individual acknowledgements here.
