THE GIRAFFE LIVES HIGH.
Animal with the Long Neck Finds It
Hard to Craze Grasses and
Low Bushes.

"You can always tell giraffe country
at a glance" said Capt. Manel, the big
game hunter. "a place Of low bushes
or no bushes or trees at all is sure not
to have any CRATES in it. Always look
for low trees with abundant LEAKAGE be-
fore you look for the giraffes. No mat
ter how fertile the ground may be, or
how full it may be Of fine, juicy grasses
and other vegetation that would furnish
abundant food for the giraffes, you
won't be likely to find them unless there
are trees. The reason for this is that it
is very nearly as hard for a giraffe to
browse on the ground sit would be for
q man to stoop without getting on hands
and knees, and pick something up from
the ground with his mouth. There is no
more awkward and painful sight than
TO see one of these beautiful beasts feed
ing from the ground. 1t straddles it's
immense forelegs out sideways till they
look as If they were being stretched like
india rubber. Then It slowly and
clumsily lowers its body, Jerking its
forelegs systematically to keep its bal
ance. That Is why giraffe is not eager
TO browse on low-growing vegetation"
