rupedal herbivorous kinds, some, like
Monoclonius, having an immense
skull, six feet in length, with three
horns, short one over each eye and
longer one above the nose. The
jaws terminated in a sharp clipping
beak, like that of turtle, and further
back in the mouth there were rows
of double-rooted teeth The back of
the skull was developed into broad
shield, with scalloped border, ex-
tending over the neck. 1t was ances-

covered the skull, followed by rings
of plates over the neck and rows of

SOME BIG GAME. THAT T. R. MISSED

Speaking of the brontosaurus, if
any one ever did, one might para
phrase Gelett Burgess:
81 never saw dinosaur,
l never hoped to see one"
Yet, according to reports accredited
to M. Capell, Belgian explorer, live
dinosaur, brontosaurus,. has been
found in Africa.
Now that the dinosaur is with us,
potentially, big game enthusiasts will
be interested in this description of
prehistoric big game, quoted from
communication to the National Geo
graphic Society by Barnum Brown:
To-day we must go to Africa for
the biggest game; but there was a
time in the dim distant past when
America produced animals larger than
any now living. That was so long
ago that nothing remains of these
creatures except their bones, and they
are turned to stone.
THE animals are dinosaurs; for the
moment we will call them lizards-not
the creeping, crawling kind, but huge
reptiles that stalked upright through
the jungles, rivaling in size the. ele-
plant, the hippopotamus, and the
rhinoceros.
'The place is Alberta, Canada, and
the time of their existence 100000
years ago.
I'm these marshes of prehistoric
times dwelt host of reptiles, some
large, some small, and of various
forms, fiesh-eaters and herb-eaters but
all snanng certain characters In COM
mon to the lizards, crocodilas, and
birds.
"Of the kinds characteristic of the
period one species, an herb-eaLef
named 1rachodon, was more than ~
feet long and about 10 feet hlgl
wnen standing erect. Its head, wlCn
broadly expanded mouth, resembles
that of duck, but back of the bea <
there are more than 1000 small teeth,
disposed in many vertical rows, each
containing several ind vIdual teeth,
the new ones coming up from below
as the OLD ones wore cut.
"Tho long hind legs terminated in
three large hoofed toes, and the short
er, slender trent feet were partly
webbed, A long, thin, slender tail
acted as powerful swimming organ,
and the body was covered with rough
tuberculate skin. Having no means

of the f1esh-ea:ers.
Along the shores lived Ornothom-
linus, bird mimic, as the name i'm
plies, one of the most remarkable of
the dinosaurs. A skeleton found in
1918 shows it to have been toothless
creature, the jaws sheathedi like the
beak of a. bird.
THE bones were light and pneu-
matte, like those of birds, but the
skeleton closely resembles that of the
flesh eating dinosaurs. 1t was about

hind legs and shorter front legs.
