Not exactly a favorite with the men of the Corps, it nonethelesssaved them from near starvation on a number of occasions.Each man consumed nine pounds of meat per day, when available, and thedesignated hunters of the Corps were kept busy throughout the journey.Raymond Darwin Burroughs tallied the quantity of game killed and consumedduring the course the expedition:Deer (all species combined) 1,001Elk 375Bison 227Antelope 62Bighorned sheep 35Bears, grizzly 43Bears, black 23Beaver (shot or trapped) 113Otter 16Geese and Brant 104Grouse (all species) 46Turkeys 9Plovers 48Wolves (only one eaten) 18Indian dogs (purchased and consumed) 190Horses 12*** Note almost 1,000 calories in a pound of beef.
