the larger rivers. He climbs and swims with equal facility, and preys
on the larger domestic quadrupeds, on Peccaries and Monkeys, and
also on Tortoises and Fishes. Sonnini saw the scratches left on the
smooth bark of a tree without branches forty feet high. Humboldt
heard the Jaguar’s yell from the tops of the trees, followed by the
sharp, shrill, long whistle of the terrified Monkeys, as they seemed to
flee. It takes Birds in their nests and Fish in the shallows and makes
havoc in some districts among Horses, Cattle and Sheep.
The Jaguar is also called the American Tiger; it is the largest
carnivorous animal of the New World. It almost equals the Tiger in
size, as well as in blood-thirstiness; it measures nearly seven feet
from the end of the nose to the root of the tail. It is not Zebra-
striped like the Tiger, but spotted in the same manner as the
Panther. Its markings are most numerous on the head, thighs, legs
and back, but always irregular in shape. The ground color of the
coat is of a bright tawny hue above, and white beneath. The Jaguar
is spread over nearly the whole of South America and of the warmer
parts of North America. It inhabits the great forests traversed by
rivers, and actively pursues various aquatic Mammals. Like the Tiger,
it swims with ease and passes the day in inaction among the islets of
the great lagoons and rivers. In the evening it seeks its food, and
levies a heavy tribute on the immense herds of wild Cattle and
Horses that graze in the Pampas of the Plata. With a single blow of
its paw it breaks the back-bone of its victims.
At the setting and rising of the sun it gives utterance to two cries,
which are well known to the natives and to hunters. It is by this
means that it announces to living nature the commencement and
the termination of its feeding operations, and thus excites terror or
joy. In certain parts of South America, Jaguars were so numerous,
that, according to Azara, in the seventeenth century, two thousand
were killed every year at Paraguay. At the present time many are yet
to be found in that region, although their numbers are considerably
diminished.
 THE PUMA OR COUGAR.

Pumas Fighting over Vultures.

The Puma or Cougar, formerly improperly called the American

Lion, is an animal about four and a half feet long, and of an uniform
fawn color without any spots. It inhabits Paraguay, Brazil, Guiana,
Mexico and the United States. It has the general appearance of a
Lioness, without possessing its dimensions.
This animal is alike remarkable for stealth and agility. It makes
great ravages among the herds, and differs from the other Cats, in
slaying numerous victims before it commences to feed. To carry off
the smaller domestic animals, it visits human habitations during the
night. It prefers living in the open country, yet it climbs trees; its
agility is such, that at one bound it can ascend upwards of twenty
feet.
The Puma is easily tamed, when it knows its master, and receives
his caresses with pleasure. No inconvenience results from allowing it
to run at liberty. The celebrated English actor, Kean, had a Puma
which followed him like a Dog, and kept close to him in the most
crowded assembly.
 THE OCELOT.
The Ocelot, one of the most beautiful of the Cat family, is a little
more than three feet in length. The color of its fur is a greyish fawn,
marked with large spots of a bright fawn, edged with black. Its
habits are entirely nocturnal; it feeds on Monkeys, Rodents and
Birds, climbing the trees in their pursuit with great swiftness. It is
found in various parts of North and South America.
Like the Puma, it rapidly becomes attached to Man. Azara has
seen one which, although it enjoyed the greatest liberty, would
never leave its master.
 THE LYNXES.
The animals belonging to the Lynx family differ from the other
Felidae in their longer coat, their shorter tail, and their ears, which
are terminated by a tuft of hair. A great number of varieties of Lynx
are known, as well in the Old as in the New World. The principal
ones, however, are the European Lynx, the Canada Lynx and the
Caracal.
 THE EUROPEAN LYNX.
The European Lynx is well known in the great forests of Northern
Europe and in Asia; it is also found in some of the Alps and
Pyrenees, as well as in the Sierras of Spain. This animal measures
from thirty to thirty-six inches, not including the tail, which is four
inches long. The upper parts of its body are of a bright red color,
with small brown spots, while the under parts are white. On each
side of its face it has an addition of white hairs, which resemble
whiskers.
The name of “Loup-cervier” sometimes given to it, probably
originated from its howling like a Wolf during the night. It nimbly
climbs trees in pursuit of prey. Martens, Ermines, Hares and Rabbits
are its favorite food. It does not, however, eat the flesh of larger
victims, unless its hunger is extreme; but generally is satisfied by
sucking out the brain.
Taken young, it becomes accustomed to captivity, and is fond of
being caressed, but it will return to its wild life if opportunity offers,
so really never becomes attached to its master. It is an extremely
cleanly animal, and, like the Cat, passes a large portion of its time in
washing and cleansing its fur.
The European Lynx is not much smaller than the Wolf, and is said
to be rather shy than bold, never attacking Man except in self-
defence, and using his claws as his principal weapons. This animal
frequents mountainous and thickly-wooded districts, and confines
himself to a limited hunting ground, not hunting in a pack, but
usually in pairs, the mother being frequently followed by her young
ones. The Lynx usually reposes during the day in such a position as
to perceive either the approach of danger or of prey, going forth at
twilight or early dawn to seek for food. Mr. Lloyd tells us that if the
Lynx fails in his spring, he does not pursue his prey to any great
distance, but slinks back to his retreat, in proof whereof he relates
the following anecdote: “Some years ago, while a peasant was
occupied with agricultural labors in the spring, he observed that
some Sheep feeding in the distance shied when passing near a
boulder on the hill-side. Inclination for the green grass, however,
having at length got the better of their fears, they once more
approached the spot, when out dashed a large Lynx from his
ambush, and made several bounds towards them; but as the poor
creatures had the start of him, they were so fortunate as to escape
his clutches. Seeing that his efforts were fruitless, the beast now
turned about and retreated to his hiding place, which the peasant
observing, he hastened home for his gun, and stealthily approaching
the spot, shot him while in his lair.”
 THE CANADA LYNX.

LYNX ATTACKING FAWN.

The Canada Lynx in size and coloring closely resembles the

European species last mentioned. It is about three feet in length,
besides the tail, which measures from four to five inches. It is retired
in its habits, keeping away even from the dwellings of the first
settlers in the forests. Its fine long fur enables it to resist the cold of
the high latitudes in which it lives. It is found north of the Great
Lakes, as far southward as the Middle States, and occasionally near
the sea coast.
When alarmed or pursued, the Canada Lynx leaps or bounds
rapidly in a straight direction from danger, and takes to a tree when
hard pressed by Dogs. It is very strong, and possessing remarkably
large and powerful fore-legs and claws, is able to climb trees of any
size; and can leap from a considerable height to the ground without
seeming to feel the jar, alighting on all four feet at the same instant,
ready for flight or for battle.
 The food of the Canada Lynx consists principally of Birds and small
quadrupeds. Occasionally it may carry off some small live stock of
the farmer, but it usually prefers such game as may be met with in
the depths of the forest in which it lurks.
 THE CARACAL.

Caracal Defending His Booty from Jackals.

The Caracal is about the size of the European Lynx. Its fur is red
above, without spots, and its chest is fawn colored, speckled with
brown. It is the Lynx of the ancients, and inhabits the north and east
of Africa, Arabia and Persia. Its habits differ very little from those of
the Lynx. It always retains, when in captivity, its savage disposition
and a great desire for liberty.
The Caracal lies in wait for young Antelope and overpowers them
without special exertion, tearing with his sharp teeth the artery of
the throat. The dexterous hunter seldom enjoys his prey in peace
for, as all large animals of prey pursue the small, so the bold,
intruding Jackal presses him from all sides, waiting his chance to
snatch part whenever possible. Our illustration shows such a scene.
The Jackal generally has a bad time in a combat with the Caracal.
The Caracal has never yet been tamed in any menagerie. Even the
Arabs of the Soudan fear him. In the illustration he has been
aggravated to the highest pitch by the attacks of the Jackal. With his
long bushy ears lying flat, lips drawn backward and one sharp,
pointed claw raised, he stands ready to strike and bite. Several of
the Jackals have already felt his weapons. Despite this they howl
and press around him until he has had his fill and leaves the rest of
his meat for the persistent beggars.
The Caracal is said to occasionally hunt in packs like Wild Dogs.
But this is uncommon; they usually hunt singly or in companies of
two or three, creeping towards their victim and springing suddenly
upon it.
In captivity, Caracals are very irritable, and sometimes display
great ferocity. Dr. Charleton saw one kill and destroy a Hound in a
moment, although the poor creature defended itself to the
uttermost. They retire to a corner of their den, crouching sullenly,
and resenting every attempt at familiarity; when irritated, the ears
are laid close to the head, the eyes glare with malignant fury, the
teeth are displayed, and they utter a hiss not unlike that of a Cat,
and quite different from the growl of a Lion or Tiger. In their wild
state they avoid man, but are dangerous foes when hard pressed or
wounded.
 THE OUNCE AND SERVAL.
These are two members of the Cat family that seem but little
known.
In size, the Ounce is between the Panther and Leopard. The color
of its coat is not yellow, but grey, and its spots are much more
irregular than on these animals. It is a native of Asia.
The Serval is also named the Cat-pard or Tiger Cat. It is only
about thirty inches long. It is found in the forests of Southern Africa;
also in Abyssinia and Algeria. It lives on small animals, particularly
Monkeys and Rodents. Its savage nature cannot be changed by
taming. Its fur, which is varied with bars and black spots on a buff
ground, is quite valuable.
 THE CHEETAH.
The Cheetah or Hunting Leopard forms the transition between the
Cat and Dog families. By its physical organization and its character it
belongs, in fact, to both these classes. It has weak, non-retractile
claws, which are unfitted for tearing purposes; but in its teeth it
unmistakably shows its affinity to the Cat family. Its limbs are also
longer, and the body more slender than that of the Cats, from
whence results a greater aptitude for hunting. Its tail is curled over
on itself at the extremity, a disposition very common in Dogs, but
which is not observed in the Cats. Its mildness, obedient temper,
and attachment when tame, naturally define its place on the
confines of the Feline and the Canine family.
The Hunting Leopard inhabits Southern Asia and various parts of
Africa. It is about four feet in length, and twenty-six inches in height.
Its fur is very elegant, being a bright fawn color above, perfectly
white beneath, and everywhere interspersed with black spots. The
tail is barred with twelve alternately white and black rings. A
quantity of hair, longer than on other parts of the body, grows on the
back of the head and neck, forming a scanty mane.
The Cheetah seizes its prey by a succession of bounds remarkable
for their rapidity. In India and Persia has been adopted the habit of
training it to hunt certain animals, its natural docility allowing it to be
readily trained for this service. The custom of employing the Cheetah
for hunting goes back to a very remote period, for the Arab Rhazes
speak of it in the tenth century.
In Mongolia the following is the method of conducting this sport.
The sportsmen start off on horseback, carrying the Cheetah either
on a Horse, or in a carriage specially constructed for the purpose.
The animal is chained, and its eyes blindfolded. The places which
Gazelles frequent are sought out. As soon as one is perceived, the
hunters stop, the Cheetah is unfastened, and its eyes unbandaged
and the game is pointed out to it. Immediately, under cover of the
high vegetation and brushwood, the beast glides off in pursuit,
taking advantage, with unequalled tact, of the slightest breaks in the
ground to conceal its movements. When it considers that it is
sufficiently near its victim, it suddenly shows itself, dashes on with
terrible impetuosity, springs on the prey after a succession of
prodigious bounds and immediately pulls it to the ground.
Its master, who has followed the events of the chase, then enters
upon the scene. To detach it from its victim, he throws it a piece of
flesh, speaks gently to it, and caresses it; after which he again
covers its eyes, and replaces it on the saddle or in its conveyance,
while the assistants carry off the prey.
This kind of hunting is very popular in Mongolia, and a well-trained
Hunting Leopard attains an extraordinary price among the
inhabitants.
In captivity, the Cheetah is familiar, gentle and playful, becoming
greatly attached to those who are kind to it. When pleased it purs;
and mews like a Cat when in distress.
THE DOG FAMILY.

ESQUIMAU DOGS.
 The many different kinds of Dogs that are spread over the entire
surface of the globe, with the Wolves, Jackals and Foxes, and their
numerous smaller relatives are all grouped under the family of
Canidae, which is derived from the Latin word Canis, meaning a
Dog. All the members of this family are digitigrade. Though they
walk on their toes, like the members of the Felidae, or Cat family,
their claws are neither sharp nor retractile like those of the Cat and
they cannot serve either for attack or defence.
Nearly all the members of this family have long tails, more or less
clothed with hair, and their tongue is smooth, and in this respect
different from the Cats.

NEWFOUNDLAND DOG.

They are the most intelligent of the Carnivora. Their senses,

particularly that of smell, are strongly developed.
Some Naturalists claim that the Dog is a tamed Wolf, others that
he is a well-educated Jackal, but there can be little doubt that he
constitutes a genus set apart for the service of mankind, although
there are such numerous varieties of domestic Dogs. It is impossible
to discover in which of the past ages, the Dog became the servant of
Man. The oldest traditions and the most ancient history show us the
Dog as the friend and the servant of mankind.
Volumes might be written relating stories of which Dogs are the
heroes. Every day in ordinary life we see something of this kind, and
which, although of such frequent occurrence, is none the less
curious. As examples of the past we might call to memory the Dog
of Ulysses, the model of fidelity; the Dog of Montargis, the
vanquisher of crime; of Munito, the brilliant player of dominoes. It is
not necessary to mention the Newfoundland Dog and the Dog of
Mount St. Bernard, as preservers of human life; their wonderful
exploits are too well known to require special instances as examples.
Nor is it necessary to speak of the numberless instances of
intelligent Dogs going for provisions for their masters, and serving
them in curious ways—like the shoe-black’s Dog, who was trained to
plant his muddy paws on the best polished boots, so as to bring
more business to his master, the man of the brush. We should never
come to an end if we attempted to tell of all the exploits of this
valuable companion of man.
It is also useless to attempt to mention all the various species of
Dogs that are found scattered over all the inhabited parts of the
world; but certain varieties may be divided into classes. The Sporting
Dogs, for instance, are usually divided into two classes—the Running
Dogs or Hounds, and the Setters or Pointers. The first follow rapidly
on a track or scent, howling and crying all the way, and only stop
when they have captured or lost their game. The second follow
silently on the trail of the game, and only stop pursuing it when the
scent announces that they are close to the object of their search. It
is then that they are said to be pointing or setting. Setters generally
lie down and wait for the sportsman, while the Pointers stand.
Among the Running Dogs might be mentioned the Greyhound, the
Hounds of Saintonge and of Poitou, English Foxhounds, Harriers and
Beagles, Turnspits, Bull-dogs, Mastiffs, etc. The principal sporting
Dogs are the Pointers, Setters, Land Spaniels and Water Spaniels.
 It is almost impossible to class all the different kinds of Dogs in
groups, with the many races and sub-races now existing. Some
Naturalists have divided all these different varieties into three classes
—the Matins, the Spaniels, and the Mastiffs, and although this
method may have its faults, it also has the advantage of being easy
to remember and sufficient for practical use.
It is among the Matins that the largest-sized Dogs are found. The
ordinary Matin—the great Danish Dog—is as large as a good-sized
Donkey; under this class are also found the Spotted Danish Dog, the
Little Danish Dog, the different varieties of Greyhounds, the
Pyrenean Shephard’s Dog, the Alpine Dog, and the St. Bernard Dog.
The Spaniels comprise the Wolf Dog, the Chinese Dog, the
Siberian Dog, the Esquimaux Dog—the two latter being used to draw
sledges across the snow—the French and English Spaniels, and what
is classed as the Small Spaniel, including a great number of varieties
of “Lap Dogs,” which are the favorite home pets, in spite of the fact
that they are particularly remarkable for their ugliness, and their
small size. The principal Lap-dogs are the King Charles, Cocker,
Blenheim, Small Poodle and the Small White Dog of Cuba, or
Havanese Dog, etc. Then we come to the Turnspits, with straight
and crooked legs; the St. Domingo Dog; the large Water Spaniel—
the most faithful and intelligent of all dogs; the Little Water Spaniel,
Poodle, Newfoundland Dog; Stag, Fox and Hare Hounds;
Bloodhounds, Pointers and Setters.
Among the Mastiffs are placed the Great Dog or English Mastiff, an
animal that is very courageous, and a great fighter; the Thibit
Mastiff, the Small Mastiff, the Pug, the Bull-dog, the Terrier, and Bull
Terrier, the Turkish Dog, remarkable for its almost naked skin, and
last of all, our common Cur Dog, with no distinct characteristics.
Then we have a class of Dogs distinct from these friends and
servants of mankind. These live either entirely wild or half-wild, and
are scattered over various parts of the globe. These are the Dingo,
or New Holland Dog, which is very destructive to domestic animals,
and even to cattle; the Dhale, or East Indian Dog, which in packs,
pursues Deer, Gazelles, etc., and which, when collected in troops,
does not fear to fight with the Lion or Tiger; the Wild Dog of
Sumatra; the Cape of Good Hope Dog and the Maroon Dog of
America.
 THE HYENA DOG.

HYENA DOGS.

The Hyena Dog might be classed with these wild and half-wild
Dogs, although it is usually given a distinct genus. As the name
indicates, it has several points of resemblance with the Hyena. This
Dog inhabits South Africa. It is about the size of a Wolf, but not so
strong as that animal. Its coat is of a deep gray color speckled with
spots of various colors. It has large pointed ears and the tail is long
and bushy. Although like the Hyena, it is very fond of putrid flesh,
the Hyena Dog also feeds on living prey, especially Gazelles,
Antelopes, etc. To pursue and capture these, the Hyena Dogs collect
in troops, which are sometimes very numerous, and under the
direction of a chief, they hunt with an intelligence unsurpassed by
the best pack of Hounds. When the game is taken they divide it
equally, but if any of the larger Carnivorous animals approach to
take a share in the feast, they all unite against the intruder. Even
Leopards and Lions have been driven off by a troop of these fierce
Hyena Dogs.
 THE DESTRUCTIVE WOLF.

WOLF.

Wherever the Wolf is found it is especially dreaded by the owners

of flocks and herds, and it is considered the most destructive
quadruped met with in Europe. Both in their habits and their physical
structure they are very closely related to the Dog. The sense of
smell in the Wolf is very acute, but its speed is not great. It wearies
out its victim by untiring perseverance and when in full chase it
persistently follows the track of the fugitive.
The Wolf is found throughout the whole of Europe, excepting
Great Britain and the neighboring islands, where it has been
exterminated. It also inhabits the cold and temperate regions of Asia
and America. In some natural excavation situated in the woods, the
Wolf takes up its abode. From here it steals forth at night to prey
upon all the weaker animal life.
 Among the varieties of the Common Wolf, it is necessary to
mention the Black Wolf, which inhabits the North of Europe, and the
Black Wolves of the Himalayas; the Dusky Wolf and the Prairie Wolf,
which lives in troops on the great plains of North America; the Red
Wolf, which leads a solitary life on the pampas of La Plata and in
Texas and Mexico; lastly, the Mexican Wolf or Coyotte, and the Java
Wolf. In the glacial regions of the two continents, White Wolves are
found.
Although our Domestic Dogs and Wolves in a wild state are deadly
enemies, yet when Wolves are captured quite young and tamed,
they often become quite friendly with the Dogs of the home, and
they are even considered safe playmates of the children in some
instances, although they are rather treacherous, and probably few
mothers would consider them safe. Yet a lady mentioned by Mr.
Lloyd in this “Scandinavian Adventures” tells of a pet Wolf which she
found trustworthy. “This Wolf became so faithful and attached that
when we took a walk about the estate, and he was with us, he
would crouch beside us when we rested, and would not allow
anyone to approach nearer than about twenty paces; for if they
came closer he would growl and show his teeth. When I called him
he would lick my hand, at the same time always keeping his eyes
fastened on the intruder. He went about the house and in the
kitchen in the same manner as a Dog, and was much attached to
the children, whom he would lick and play with. This continued until
he was five months old. He had his kennel in the lower yard near the
gate, and in the winter-time when the peasants came with charcoal,
he would leap on to the stone fence, where he would wag his tail
and whine until they came up to him and patted him. At such times
he was always desirous of searching their pockets, that he might
ascertain if they had anything good to eat about them. The men
became so accustomed to this that they used to amuse themselves
by putting a piece of bread in their coat pockets to let him find it
out, and he ate all that they gave him. Besides this, he ate three
bowls of food daily. It was remarkable that our Dogs used to eat
with him out of the same bowl, but if any strange animal attempted
to share the food with him, he would soon show anger.”
“At one time,” says Mr. Lloyd, “I had serious thoughts of training a
fine Wolf in my possession as a pointer, but was deterred, owing to
the liking she exhibited for the neighbor’s pigs. She was chained in a
little enclosure, just in front of my window, into which these animals,
when the gate was left open, ordinarily found their way. The devices
the Wolf employed to get them into her power were very amusing.
When she saw a Pig in the vicinity of the kennel she, evidently with
the purpose of putting him off his guard, would throw herself on her
side or back, wag her tail most lovingly, and look innocence
personified. And this amiable demeanor would continue until the
grunter was beguiled within the length of her tether, when in the
twinkling of an eye the prey was clutched.
“When the Wolf is hungry, everything is game that comes to his
net. In the Gulf of Bothnia he often preys upon Seals. When that sea
is frozen over, or partially so, as is generally the case soon after the
turn of the year, he roams its icy surface in search of the young of
the Gray Seal, which at that season breeds among the hummocks in
great numbers; and finding this an easy way of procuring
sustenance, he remains on the ice until it breaks up in the spring. It
not unfrequently happens, however, that during storms large fields
of ice, on which numbers of Wolves are congregated, break loose
from the shore or the land-ice; in this case, as soon as the beasts
perceive their danger, but see no possibility of escape, they rush to
and fro, keeping up the while a most woeful howling, heard
frequently at a great distance until they are swallowed up by the
waves.”
The vision and hearing, but more particularly the sense of smell in
the Wolf, are very fully developed. These faculties are of great
service in enabling it to obtain food and avoid danger.
When suffering from hunger it loses all caution, and becomes a
scourge to the farmers’ flocks and a source of danger even to Man.
In broad daylight, under such circumstances, without being seen, it
will draw near a flock of Sheep, eluding the vigilance of the dogs, it
