wild Animals at Rest.

When bear sleeps his sleep is
heavy; but, unlike lions and tigers,
ne sleeps little in the daytime. Griz-
ely bears uBually curl up under rocks,
but sometimes crawl up on the top Of
the< rock, and then spread out their
legs in what seems most uncomforta-
BILE and dangerous position; but bears
never release their muscular grasp of
any object when asleep.
The highly strung, nervous animals
are the most interesting to watch at
night. They usually belong to the
hunted tribes, whose lives are in con.
slant danger in the forest, and they
possess such highly developed ner-
voas system that they really sleep
with one eye open. The slightes.
noise will certainly awake them. It
is almost impossible to surprise an
ordinas. English hare at night. The
eye .iearest to the point from which
an attack may be expected is.kept
open, and the ear is always opened in
the same direction.
Deer, when asleep in the shooting
season, merely seem to close their
eyes for an instant and open them
again to see il all is quiet. Guinea
pigs never seem to sleep, and are con-
stantly on the watch for an
enemy approaching. This is unusu-
al, considering that most guinea pigs
are kept as pets.
