ADDENDUM 



IN speaking of the trust antelope place in their 

 eyesight as a guard against danger, I do not mean 

 to imply that their noses are not also very acute; 

 it is as important with them as with all other game 

 to prevent their getting the hunter s wind. So with 

 deer; while their eyes are not as sharp as those of 

 big-horn and prong-horn, they are yet quite keen 

 enough to make it necessary for the still-hunter to 

 take every precaution to avoid being seen. 



Although with us antelope display the most rooted 

 objection to entering broken or wooded ground, yet 

 a friend of mine, whose experience in the hunting- 

 field is many times as great as my own, tells me that 

 in certain parts of the country they seem by prefer 

 ence to go among the steepest and roughest places 

 (of course, in so doing, being obliged to make ver 

 tical as well as horizontal leaps), and even penetrate 

 into thick woods. Indeed, no other species seems 

 to show such peculiar &quot;freakiness&quot; of character, both 

 individually and locally.
