areas of all wild game.
As the game vanished. the lions disap-
peared, too; for. although at first they
preyed to a large extent on the domestic
nocks and herds which gradually replaced
the Wild denizens of nature. they would
nave become SO numerous in the sparsely
Inhabited or altogether %uninhabited parts Of
Africa that they would first have extermin-
eteo all the game on which they had been
wont to prey and would then have had to
starve or to have eaten one another.
But such a state of things has never s.een
Known to occur; n whenever Europeans
nave entered a previously unexplored and
uninhabifed tract Of country in Africa. and
nave found it teeming with buffaloes. ze-
pras and entelopes, they have always found
lions In such districts very plentiful. In
oeeo, but never in such numbers as to &C.
r1ously diminish the abundance of the once
uninhabfted plains. This practice brought
them into conflict with the white colonists
or native herdsmen. armed with weapons Of

cumbed. -
To-day lions are still to be found wherever
exists in any quantity, and their num-
will be in proportion to those Of the
Wild animals on which they prey.

, just where the thighs join the belly. But I
have never yet seen the skin Of a lion shot
within the last thirty years with the whole
belly covered with long. thick hair, as may
constantly be observed in lions kept in
| captivity in the menageries of Europe.
There is. however. some evidence to show
that. when lions existed on the high plains
OF the Cape Colony and the Orange River
Colony. where the winter nights are much
colder than in the countries further north
where lions may still be encountered, GER
tain individuals of the species developed a
growth of long hair all over the belly. as
well as an extraordinary luxuriance Of name
on the neck and shoulders.
From the foregoing remarks 1t will be
seen that wild animals, having. as a rule.
much less iuxuriant names than many ex-
amples of their kind to be seen in European
~menageries. are ordinarily not so majestic
and dignified in appearance az many Of
their Gagged relatives. On the other hand.

| Speaking generally, there is little or no

sometimes slowly and sulkily. but in dis
tricts where much hunting with firearms
mas been going on at a very rapid pace.
However, / have known Of two cases of
Europeans mounted on horseback having
been attacked by lions In broad daylight,
and Doctor Livingstone mentions a third.
In one OF the instances which came within
my own knowledge a lion sprang at a Boer
hunter as he was riding slowly along. car
rying an elephant gun in his right hand and
followed by a string OF natives on foot.
The lion attacked from the left side, and
with its right paw seized my friend from
behind BY the right side of his face and
neck. infiicting deep gashes with its sharp
claws. one of which cut right through his
cheek and tore out one OF his teeth. My
friend was pulled from his horse. but

in any large series of wild lion skins made

races have. however, been recently described
by German writer's,
In the hot and steaming coast lands of

, The indefinite increase of lions must have
been checked by some unknown law Of game
upon which they depended for food.
1t is easy to understand that the increase
OF a herd Of herbivorous animals would be
regulated by the amount Of the food supply
available, as well as constantly checked by
the attacks of the large carnivora, such as
lions. leopards. cheetahs. hyenas and wild
dogs; but 1 have never been able to compre-
bend what has kept within bounds the in
ordinate increase of lions and other carniv-
orous animals in countries where for ages
past they have had an abundant food sup
ply. and at the same time having been al
most entirely unmolested by human beings.
have had no enemies. Perhaps such n state
of things does not exist at the present day,
but there are many parts Of Africa where
such conditions have existed from time i'm
memorial up to within quite recent years.
Since lions were once to be found over the
greater portion of the vast continent of
Africa. 1t is self-evident thai these animals
are able to accommodate themselves to
great variations of climate and surround
ings. and I myself have met with them
close to the sea, in the hot and sultry coast
lands Of Southeast Africa, on the high
plateau of Mashonaland, where at an alti-
tude of 6.0oe feet above sea level the winter
nights are cold and frosty; among the stony
hills to the east Of Victoria Falls of the
zambesi. and in the swamps Of the chobi.
In the great reed beds Of the latter river
a certain number OF lions appeared to live
constantly. preying on buffaloes and lechwe
antelopes. I often heard them roaring at
night in these swamps. INT I once saw two
big male lions wading slowly across an open
space between two beds Of reeds, In water
