II. THE GAME — CARNIVORA, PACHYDERMATA, ETC. 33 



At certain times one has to hunt hard to meet with success, but if one knows 

 where to go, and chooses the right season, game can be found in abundance. 



I have not mentioned many small animals, such as jungle cats, otters, etc., 

 as they are not, strictly speaking, sporting animals, but the hunter who is also a 

 field naturalist will have plenty of interesting matter to study and to make notes 

 on. I believe there are many small mammals, such as rodents, still to be discovered, 

 if the naturalist sets about it in the right way. The natives are very ignorant with 

 regard to the smaller animals, and it takes a lot of questioning to get reliable 

 information from them on any subject, and particularly natural history.
