extremely quiet. Then the tracker
lost them and we waited, tense, for
about ten minutes.
HE came back and said very
close. AS we looked up, cameras
in hand, there they were a few
feet away. A huge bull began to
charge, and we all just disappeared
in the jungle. The gun man was the
first to run, after dropping his gun.
Fortunately the jungle was so thick
it wasn't hard to dodge, and the
elephant change his mind and
turned back. But it was close
call. The natives are more terri
fled of elephants than most of the
wild beasts, as they are vicious and
will occasionally tramp down ma
tive hut.
| Photographic Aids
1T would be practically impossi-
BILE to get close-ups or good wild
animal pictures without the tele-
photo lens and the motor driven
cameras. The first enables us to
bring the pictures close to the
camera and the motor is necessary
as there are times when one has
to leave the camera and get out
of danger. Most pictures are taken
from heights and fairly safe dis
tances. However, occasionally, even
with these precautions, one is apt
to get caught.
"One afternoon we came on a
python about % feet long and
nearly foot in diameter, of which
wanted a closeup for wild
Cargo, I had an expensive Aikley
camera, motor driven, which I
trained on him while he slept about
Is feet away. After some shots
showing him sleeping, waited for
him to wake. He did, and started
toward the camera. 1t was good
picture and / followed his ap-
proach. When he got about six
feet away he raised his head and
sprang at the camera and 1 jump
ed. He coiled himself about the
battery box under the camera and
all of us just waited for him to
move away. We were afraid to have
the hunters shoot for fear he would
spring, destroy not only the valu-
able camera, but the photographs. !"
Occasionally in taking these pic
lures, serious accidents occur to one
or another of the company. This is
in spite of the hunters, who always
are present with guns trained on
the beasts. But, considering the
| risks taken, accidents are rare, Mr..
Cavaliere said.
II am often asked what I con-
slider the most dangerous wild jun
gle beast, and I wouldn't hesitate
to call the black panther the vii
lain of the Jungle Tigers or 9TH
er animals might stink away as
few of them like the human scent,
but the panther will go for a man
almost every time.
There is lots of grief, many
headaches and the going is hard,
but like the jungle, the risk and
the outdoor photography, however,
I wouldn't want to do it all my
life," he smiled.

Varied Locale
wild Cargo" was made up OF
pictures taken in the jungles OF
Sumatra, India, Ceylon and Ma
laya, and the company with tons
of equipment and hundred of ma
tive coolies, packers and hunters
covered thousands of miles through
the almost impenetrable wilds be-
fore it was completed.
Fortunate Accidents
Flights between wild animals
which add such thrilling touches
to feature pictures, are almost in
variably obtained accidentally
Sometimes, as in the case of the
python and panther fight in wild
Cargo the natives, trained to be
constantly on the lookout, are OF
help. They notify US of the loca-
ton of python and, hoping for
some break, cameras are set sur
rounding the spot. Then all one
can do is wait, and take a chance
on something happening. If the
natives locate panther, or tiger
nearby, heaters" are sent out to
try to drive the animal in the di-
rection of the python. Pythons are
lazy reptiles and will frequently
stay coiled in a tree or on the
ground for hours waiting for some
unwary game to come along for
food. This trait makes it possible TO
drive lurking animal toward one
into limited area, trusting that
combat will result.
Elephants Dangerous
Tracking elephants is particular
ly hazardous, as the huge animals
are tremendously powerful and vic
ious when wild, and will charge
without provocation. They have
very poor eyesight but an extreme
ly keen sense of smell, so that it is
always necessary to keep from the
windward side. Their danger is
greatly increased if there is a
young one in the herd
In one instance while tracking
elephants. death came closer than
was comfortable. A small herd of
six, with young elephant had been
located, and tracker was on its
trail for week When it came
within a days hike of our camp,
he let us know and we started out
to find it. For an hour we quietly
followed the immense beasts. They
are easy to follow because of the
wide trail they leave as they pillow
through the jungle, though they are
