MAMMALS CARNIVORA. 79 



B. DIGITIGRADE. All the feet with five toes. 



Viverridae. 



C. PLANTIGRADE. All the feet with five toes. 



Mustelidae. 

 Ursidae. 



Many systematic writers divide the Rapacia into three sub-orders: Insectivora, Carnivora, and 

 Omnivora; the latter constituted hy the family of Ursidae. Although in some respects this 

 arrangement may he preferable, yet for my present purposes the one adopted above has the 

 advantage of greater simplicity.
