text: The Petre Bear (if the name be allowed) has five claws on the fore feet, between two and three inches long, nearly of the same thickness, and not very bulky: the hair all over the body is of a rustyish black colour, very harsh and coarse, between twelve and eighteen inches long; that on the shoulder rather longer, which it can draw forwards, or lay backwards: the form of the head, and chiefly the mouth, is the principal characteristic of the animal; this we have endeavoured to render as intelligible as possible, by adding a view of the mouth when open: from the eyes to the tip of the nose, is about 6 ½ inches, which tapers off like the truncated snout of swine: the front of the mouth, when shut, is flat also, like the swine: the formation of the nostrils differs from every other animal’s, the natural shape being exactly as shewn in the drawing: the lips project very far (two or three inches) beyond the front teeth: the lower lip, as well as the upper one, with the nostrils, are very flexible, over which the animal has great command, placing them in any position at pleasure; has great power of suction, and will draw things into its mouth at a considerable distance: the tongue is rather small: teeth at present few: was fed, on board the ship, with boiled rice and sugar; at present on bread (about a quartern loaf per day): with some difficulty was brought to eat flesh, which it does now with a relish: is very tame; appears pleased when kindly noticed, soliciting play: expresses anger with a kind of accented growl, something like barking: its paws, when laid together, it sucks with a tremulous noise, like one when shaking with pain: the feet are short; has nails on the hind legs: drinks, or rather sucks water in considerable quantity: general appearance black, face grey, stands about 2 ½ feet high, 5 feet long, has grown considerably since it has been in England.
