and no less than eight fawns have been bred by the 

 Society, which, with the exception of the first, have all 

 arrived at as perfect maturity as if they had been born in 

 the wilds of Kordofan. 



The great family of Antelopes have many representa- 

 tives in the collection, and the Council believe that when 

 the completion of the new building, now in progress, shall 

 have given them the means of assembling all the minor 

 forms in one series, they will form one of the most striking 

 objects in the Garden. 



The most important of all Antelopes, in beauty, size, 

 and utility, is the Eland, and the success with which this 

 animal has been managed is one of the most effective points 

 in the History of the Zoological Society. 



The original stock came as a bequest from the late Pre- 

 sident in 1851. The following Table indicates the annual 

 increase which has been obtained from them ; and it will 

 be seen that the five animals then placed in the Society's 

 possession have given origin to no less than twenty 

 young.
