The Mobridge Village (39WW1), a single component Post-Contact Coalescent site situated along the Missouri River near the city of Mobridge, South Dakota, has been subjected to the digging activities of relic collectors for at least four decades. Unmodified animal remains which abound in the disturbed middens have previously been ignored. During a period of several days in June 1975 and 1976 a sample of approximately 2,000 bones, representing at least 36 species and 152 individuals, was recovered. Identification and analysis of this material provides data which indicate the former significance of bison and other herbivores as major sources of meat for these people. A variety of small mammals comprised a valued supplemental food resource; the avian species complex suggests that the majority of birds may have been taken for their plumage or body parts rather than as food. A detailed analysis and discussion of the Canis material is presented
