“When Joaquin Miller departed from the classifications offered by American mammalogists and insisted that California’s black bears were different from Eastern black bears he was not using poetic license . . . . Professor Grinnell finds that not only are California’s bears different in accord with Joaquin Miller’s statement, but also that they fall into two sub-species . . . . In deference to the California poet, Professor Grinnell names one of these sub-species Ursus americanus californiensis . . .”
