Grand Tiger Hunt of a Native Indian Prince, 



Mo W ,t 1 ^ ' ^^r a ^° Un ° f ' S T Unds ' and ^^ throu S h the ex ertion S * a native, 

 J ho kept it back with a spear. The Tiger hung in this way for the greater part of a mile, when another 



hunter succeeded in overtaking the terrified elephant, and with a single ball freed the poor animalfom ito 



Tigers are usually taken by the natives in jpttMs, at the bottom of which is planted a bamboo stake, 

 the top of which is sharpened into a point. The animal falls on the point and is impaleo 



the general notion that Tigers cannot be tamed is erroneous. They can be tamed as easily as the Lion • 

 bat great caution must be used with all wild animals, as in a moment of irritation their mxam nature 

 breaks out, and he consequences have more than once proved fatal. The melancholv death of the " Lion 

 Mueen, in Wombwells Menagerie, is a recent example of this propensity.
