The Awakening Tiger.

Between tho drowsy sleep Of the noe
turnal animals and the representative
sleep of those which spend their lives in
constant fear of their enemies o place
must be found for the form of slumber
enjoyed by the large carnivora and that
of domestic animals The former have
no enemies to fear except man, and the
latter, protected by man, enjoy to the
full the blessing of natural rest.
Tigers are frequently found fast
asleep in tho daytime. Native hunters
have been known to track them after
"kill" to the place in which they were
lying fast asleep and gorged with food
and to shoot them as they lie. When
taking his midday repose in districts
where it is little disturbed, the tiger
does not always retire to a place of Sc
curity, like the bear, or even the leop-
ard, which usually sleeps ON the branch
Of tree, 1t just lies down in some con-
venient spot, either shady or warm, ac-
cording to the weather. and there sleeps
almost regardless of danger. They have
been found lying in dry nullahs, under
trees and even in the grass of the hill
sides unobserved until their disturber
came within few yards Of them.
