Summary: | caplin n They often visited the beaches to pick up dead fish or the bodies of sea birds wrecked by storms or killed by floating oil. With the dawn of July came the annual miracle of the caplin / run, when any meat-eater could pick up his fill on almost any Newfoundland beach. Then the young foxes deserted the pond and the forest, and became beachcombers, living always within sight of the surf. PRINTED ITEM DNE-cit G.M.
