SPORT IN WESTERN CHINA 177 



The foregoing are all the grazing game animals yet recorded 

 from central and Western China as far as my knowledge goes. 

 In shops in the town of Wench'uan Hsien, two days' journey 

 up the Min Valley from Kuan Hsien, and in Tachienlu, I have 

 seen a few horns of a Roe Deer (Capreolus) , but could obtain 

 no satisfactory evidence as to their origin. However, it is 

 highly probable that some day a race of Roe Deer will be 

 discovered in this little-known Chino-Thibetan borderland. 

 The nature of the country is unsuitable for Yak and other 

 wild-game of the Thibetan plateaux proper.
