Changing Patterns of Indian Trapping in the Canadian Subarctic
Describes changes observed among Chipewyans at Snowdrift in southwestern Mackenzie District in 1960-1961, and considers their duplication and significance throughout the Subarctic. At Snowdrift, trapping has decreased in area, intensity, and popularity. Among the factors responsible are other source...
