COURAGE - THE WALRUs.- walrus
is an obstinate animal and does not fly
on the approach of man, but on the con-
trary, forum. themselves into body,
they go and meet him and resist any at
tempt on his part to proceed. When u
company Of travellers meet these animals
on the shore, they are forced to fight their
way through them, and if they are pelted
with stones, they gnaw them with their
teeth, and afterwards attack the men with
redoubled fury, rendng the air with most
tremendous growing. These animals
seem to be fully aware Of the effect Of uni
ted resistance and attack, and also of the
utility Of keeping in masses and ranks.
for should any QRA Of them attempt to re,
treat, those .~TrEr fall upon and
compel 9iD| in the ranks, or kill
him. S1Jhetitnes it happens that. when
one waIrGs attempts tdstop another, who
is retreating, they all suspect each other
of being inclined to fly, and, in that case,
the contest often becomes universal
When two are fighting with one, the 9TH
erS come to the aid of the weaker side.
While they are thus fighting on the land,
others that are in the water raise and their
heads and look on for time, till they also
become enraged, when they swim to the
shore, and join in the combat.
