 out that this fly occurs where there is no game and also that it 

 is absent in some regions where this game thrives. Deep shade

 ders also points out that not only big game but all other animals 

 are hosts of the Tsetse fly, including the cold blooded crocodiles, 

 lizards, perhaps also birds. Even if it were practically possible 

 to extirpate the game, it would be a great loss from the stand- 

 point of meat supply for expeditions.
