Title	Introduced Fishes, Game Birds, and Game and Fur-Bearing Mammals of Utah by Boris Hewitt Popov
Alternate Title	duplicate
Description	The introduced Fishes, Game Birds, and Game and Fur-Bearing Mammals of Utah by Boris Hewitt Popov. A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Zoology, Utah State Agricultural College, 1949.
Abstract	For a number of years wildlife workers have realized the importance of the past histories of introduced species. Emphasis in recent years has been directed toward introductions because of the tremendous hunting and fishing pressures. Yearly increases in numbers of hunters and fishermen have been noted in Utah for the past forty years. It is hoped that this compilation of the histories of the introduced game and fish species of Utah will be of value to sportsmen and wildlife managers alike in planning future introductions. The material included in this paper was obtained from United States Government reports, Utah Territorial, reports, Utah State reports, newspapers and periodicals, personal interviews, and wardens' questionaires. The United States Government reports used included Bureau of Fisheries reports from 1870 to 1939, and Fish and Wildlife Service reports from 1940 to 1948. Utah Territorial reports covered the period from 1850 to 1895, and Utah State reports covered the time from 1896 until the present. Newspapers used in the search for material included the Deseret Evening News from 1860 to 1915, the Deseret News Weekly from 1870 to 1900, the Salt Lake Tribune from 1915 to 1948, and the Ogden Standard Examiner from 1930 to 1940. Other periodicals searched were the Journal History of the L.D.S. Church, the Transactions of the Utah Academy of Arts, Sciences, and Letters, and the Utah Educational Review. An effort was made to personally interview all present and former officials, now living, of the Utah State Fish and Game Department, Also personally contacted were sportsmen and wildlife federation officers known to haves been active in fish and game work. Most of the data necessary to plot the maps accompanying this paper were obtained from questionaires sent to all wardens in the state. Distribution maps have been verified by officials of the Utah State Fish and Game Department. It is realized that the exact dates and circumstances pertaining to some of the early introductions are somewhat confused. However, an effort has been made to include only material which appears to be substantiated with facts and references. It is possible that in some cases introductions were made prior to those indicated herein as first introductions. It is also possible that in some instances early workers may have used incorrect scientific and common names. In most cases, however, it is felt that the materials and figures included in this paper are reasonably accurate. Throughout the paper the fish, game birds, and game and fur-bearing mammals will be treated in phylogenetic sequence.
