UNCLE RAYS CORNER

How many animals can you think
of which have horns?
First of all, we might speak of
bulls. They usually have large,
strong horns.
Buffaloes have horns. They are
relatives of the cattle family, in
fact they are classed as members of
the cattle family. We may speak of
the American bison, the African
buffalo, and the water buffalo of
Asia as cattle of sort.
Several other kinds of animals
have horns. There are short horns
on giraffes, and antelopes also have
horns.
The rhinoceros is a horned ami
NAL. The Indian rhinoceros has
one horn, and the African rhinoc-
eros has two.
Rams among sheep commonly
have horns, but not the females or
"ewes.' Yet some female sheep
have horns, as in the Dorset breed
and wild American bighorn sheep.
Among goats it is usual for both
males and females to have horns.
In most breeds the males horns
are good deal larger, but among

Buffalo Carries Horns of Huge Size

Among the largest of all true
horns are those carried by the In
dian buffalo. Now and then a pair
of these stretches out to a width
of more than feet!
We may also class deer among
horned animals. Their horns have
the special name of "antlers."
Antlers of deer differ from most
other horns in being solid, not hol-
low Usually they have points. In
most cases the female, or doe, has
no horns. In the reindeer family,
however, the doe has fine, large
antlers.
The male reindeer and moose
have the prize antlers among the
deer. One huge pair of moose ant
lers was found to measure 61a feet
from tip to tip.
Deer lose their antlers each year
Then they grow new ones. Often
the antler on one side falls of a
day or two before the one on the
other side.
