The Preservation of Big Game 



The Harnessed Antelope. 



The very rare and difficult-to-find Situtunga, 

 who buries himself in water, leaving only his nose 

 above the surface. 



And possibly one or two more. 



I fancy, however, that shooting on the way 

 down the Nile is a lengthy business if not almost 

 impossible. 



My object will have been achieved if these few 

 words may be found to be of use to the big-game 

 sportsman in East Africa, as well as the photo- 

 graphs, so that he can identify any animal that 

 comes across his path at a glance. 



" Morituri te salutant " (but kill outright).
