P- 335- 

 This animal, which is called by the Rullmns Morfe, 

 from thence by our feamen corruptly Sea Horfe, and in 

 the Gulph of St. Lawrence Sea Cow, is found every where 

 about the coail of Spitfbergen, and generally where-ever 

 there is ice, though at a diftance from the land. It is a 

 gregarious animal, not inclined to attack, but dangerous 

 if attacked, as the whole herd join their forces to revenge 

 any injury received by an individual.

Found on the main land of Spitfbergen and iflands ad- 

 jacent, though not in any abundance. It dijffers from 

 our Fox, befides its colour, in having its ears much more 

 rounded. It fmells very little. We ate of the ilefh of 

 one, and found it good meat.
