to the Black Hills forest reserve

1t is only matter of a few years
until the African elephant will be ex-
tinct. Most of the fine specimens
have been killed off already. The
herds that are roaming the jungles
have little ivory. and are, therefore,
immune from elephant hunters. How
ever, as civilization spreads. the herds
are being destroyed, for the reason
that they are menace to the safety
of the natives, besides being the de-
stroyers of much property.
Now that they are suspected Oh car
rying sleeping sickness. their doom is
sealed. For this reason am anxious
to return to Africa as soon as possible
to complete the specimens for my
group. Unless do so no museum will
be able to group elephants as they

sion as we'll as most of the beliefs
about the elephant are erroneous.
In the first place the elephants we
see here in America are Indian ele-
plants. They are understood. even
the largest of them.
A full-grown African elepnant is
nearly three times the size of Jumbo,
which was the largest elephant ever
brought to America. | have shot sew
eral specimens which stood over thir
teen feet and which weighed at least
twice as much as Jumbo.
Next to the monkey, the elephant is
the wisest and most intelligent of all
animals. / am not saying this OF the
domesticated Indian elephant. but of
the African elephant in his native
state. And the African elephant is
always a huge, wild beast. He is
never domesticated
During the past two years that
spent in British East Africa and
Uganda studying the elephant as he
has lived for centuries, learned sew
eral things about him that entities
him to be called the most Intelligent
of all animals, the monkey alone eN-
cepted
In many respects he surpasses the
monkey, but the latter's intelligence
more nearly approaches our own, and
for that reason we must consider him
the highest type of intelligence.
Much to my surprise, | discovered
that the bull elephant is rarely a fight
er. Indeed, there is little danger from
him. The generally accepted theory
that the big bulls are not found in
the big herds is a fallacy.
The bull elephants that are found
roaming alone are almost invariably
senile gentlemen who have been cast
off by herd. While | succeeded in
getting three splendid specimens of
bull elephants the finest specimen is
still at large. | was unable to get
him, for the reason that he lives in
the center of herd of 700 elephants,
who guard him night and day.
These herds of elephants have COW
/ leaders. The leader is usually an old
animal with an ugly disposition The
COWS protect the bulls. and the mo
ment they scent danger they crowd
around them in order to prevent them
from being shot. If they can see the
hunters they will charge them. leaving
enough of their number to guard the
bulls
Their sense of smell is very acute
They can detect the presence of a
man thousand yards off, but unless
he is moving they can't see him, even
If he is within hundred yards. When
they catch a whiff of wind tainted by
man the cow elephants charge in that
direction and it is hundred to one
that they will locate the person.
If it happens that hunter can get
near enough to shoot a bull elephant
the COWS gather around the bull and
try to carry him away saw several
cows vainly try to carry off a big bull

NUN IN nOtlOH lHe COWS ran OH ana
left him.
These African ele.- .-hants have many
signals which they use to communi-
cate among themselves: for instance,
when a COW gets the wind of a hunter
she signals 'om guard and imme-
diately every elephant in the herd
stops grazing and listens with trunk
the grave
Even when a shot among them
causes a stampede and the forest re-
sounds with the first crash of their
moving. they can disappear without
making the slightest noise. They can
move so silently that l have often
come within fifteen or twenty yards
of big beast, mistaking his trunk
and forefeet for trees in the jungle.
On several occasions the beasts re-
ceded So quickly and SO quietly that
lost them altogether.
When they want TO they can make
more noise than any animals in the
world. A herd of two or three hun
dred will trample down an entire ma
tive village and all the farms around
it with such noises that can only be
compared to an earthquake.
Again a herd will slide through the
| forest so quietly than you can't hear
them en- yards away As their senses
of smell. and hearing are acute, they
rarely fall into the elephant pits
which the natives dig to capture them
don't suppose one pit in hundred
accomplishes its mission. When the
elephants go through the forests they
| hold their trunks close to the ground
and by tapping every now and then
then can detect any pit, no matter
how sllillfully concealed, before step
ping into it.
The moment they strike any ground
that is the least bit suspicious they
/ tap it carefully and make wide de
tours Of course when a herd is
stampeded they haven't time to in
vestigate the ground and then they
sometimes fall into the pits
The generally accepted theory that
the calves are only to be found with
COWS is also fallacy The COWS are
the leaders and the fighters of the
herds. so it is only natural that they
should turn over their offspring to be
cared for by the bulls when they
themselves are busy. And that is eX
actly the case.
