Excerpt from A Faunal Investigation of King Township, York County, OntarioAlthough King township, York county, is so close to Toronto as to justify its inclusion m that rather indefinite area, the Toronto region, its fauna has not previously received specific treatment. Its southeastern corner is but thirteen miles from the present northern city limit. In a few respects, such as the extent of uncultivated wooded and swamp land, the territory is unique for the general region and it has appeared desirable to make a survey of the higher forms of animal life to be found there and present a list for future reference.The township is bounded on the south by Vaughan township and on the west by the Peel county line. The Holland river forms its northern boundary while Yonge street marks most of its eastern limits. The original township survey was made in 1800, although subsequent alterations in 1851 gave it its present outline. It is said to embrace a total of acres (history of Toronto and County of York, The whole of the area is characterized by irregular, morainic ridges which run approximately east and west and give a local variation of altitude of over four hundred feet. The highest point in the township is feet above sea level (dept. Of Nat'l. Defence, Topographic map, No. The irregularity of the land surface prohibits cultivation in some sections as does also the heavy mixture of glacial boulders and stones in the soil.

The moraine hills form the height of land between Lake Ontario and Lake Simcoe, the drainage to the south giving rise to tributaries of the Humber river, while on the north the drainage is through the Holland river.to Lake Simcoe and thence to Georgian bay.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
