AS A SPECIES 147 



What scientists are inclined to overlook is the remarkable 

 individuality of animals, and this is, I think, more noticeable 

 among Caribou than any animal with which I am at all 

 familiar. In proof of this, I must once more ask the reader 

 to refer to the photographs. Careful comparisons will show 

 how true this is. In no case is it more marked than in the 

 three different pictures of does facing pages 122, 124 and 

 130. The complete difference in appearance is so great that 

 it is not easy to believe that they represent the same species. 

 Not only is this true of the adults, but even the fawns, which 

 are about of equal age. Both colour and form are distinctly 

 different.
