the bones of the animal with occasionally
some Of the hairs, seemed to compose his
general faces ;--and this may account for
these animals being able to remain so long
without supply of food. He had more diff.
Guilty in killing fowl than larger animal,
the former being too small for his grasp.
AS we approached the Cape of Good
Hope, this animal began to droop, as was then
supposed, ftointhc increasing GOODNESS of the
weather. (which may probably have had its in
fuence,) and he refused to kill some fowls
which were offered to him. Between the
Cape and St. Helena, he was found dead in
his cage; and on dissection, the coats of his
stomach were discovered to be excoriated
and perforated with worms. Nothing remain
