 In Il couple of minutes we saw the tapir take to the waters far upstream. and after 1t we went as fast as the paddle could urge us through the wa ter. We were not in time to head it, but fortunately some of the dogs had come down to the rivers edge at the very point where the tapir was about to land. Two or three of the dogs were swimming.

 .. Dangerous Peccaries.
 
 The small peccaries go singly or in small parties and when chased take refuge in holes or hollow logs. where they show valiant fight, but the big peccaries go in herds of considerable size and are so truculent that they are reluctant to run and prefer either to move slowly off, chattering their tusks and grunting, or else actually to charge.
 Where much persecuted the survi- vors gradually grow more willing to run, but their instinct is not to run, but to trust to their truculence and their mass action for safety. They in- flict fearful bite and frequently kill dogs. They often charge the hunters, and have heard of men being badly wounded by them, while almost every man who hunts them often is occasion ally forced to scramble up d tree to avoid charge. But have never heard of a man being killed by them. They sometimes surround the tree in which the man has taken refuge and keep him up 1t .t,...
 Cherrie on one occasion ill Costa Rica was thus kept up tree for several hours by great herd of 300 or 400 of these peccaries, and this although he killed several of them. Ordinarily, however, after making their charge they do not turn. but pass on out of sight .'..
 Ugly Looking Objects.
 Soon we heard the ominous grooming of the herd in front of us and almost on each side. Then Benedetto joined us, and the dog appeared in the rear. We moved slowly forward toward the sound of the fierce moaning grunts. which were varied at times by a casta- net chatteling of the tuSks.
