The Price boys report that they had on numerous occasions spotted the lions tracks but were unable to ever s see him. Stockmen in the Geneva vicinity have lost at various times quite a number of their animals and it s believed that the lion was making the kills. A number of deer carcasses have been seen in that vicinity that are believed to have been killed by this lion. Last fall G. H.

The lion evidently had no mate as ranchers in the Geneva section have seen tracks only of a single lion.
