Public domain: published in the United States without copyright. No copyright notice was placed in the front matter of the book, and such notice was required at that time. This work is also public domain in jurisdictions where copyright on U. S. works lasts for 80 or fewer years after the death of the artist. Since the work by Fuertes appears to be work he did for the United States Bureau of Biological Survey, it is possible that this work is in the public domain as a work of the U. S. government as well.
