Abstract:
Papers of Jackson, a zoologist employed by the U.S. Biological Survey (1910-1940) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (1940-1951), consisting of correspondence and research reports. Jackson authored a monumental survey of Wisconsin mammals in 1961 and much of the correspondence, 1922-1958, focuses upon that publication and others. The reports consist of field observations of Wisconsin mammals made by Jackson, 1912-1955, scattered reports by other researchers, and 1940 field observations made by Jackson and Olaus Murie in the western United States. Correspondents include wildlife biologists Aldo Leopold, F. J. W. Schmidt, George Wagner, A. W. Schorger, Francis Zirrer, and Walter E. Scott. Also present are letters, 1928-1932, to Dr. E. W. Nelson, including two from Theodore Roosevelt.
