CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICAN BIG GAME 427 



Besides the ciervo, South America boasts, according to 

 Admiral Kennedy, of four other species of deer, the gama 

 (C. campestris), a beast rather larger than the Scotch roe deer, 

 common all over the Pampas, the ghazu vira or swamp deer, 

 the ghazu Colorado, and the venadillo. It is a pity that some 

 enterprising sportsman does not devote a year or so to sport 

 in South America. Jaguar and ciervo (to say nothing of the 

 possibility of bagging deer almost unknown to his brother 

 sportsmen in England) should be bait enough to tempt some 

 one to more thoroughly investigate the sporting possibilities 

 of South America. 



For a fuller knowledge of South American game beasts, 

 the reader is referred to Admiral Kennedy's book, and to Mr. 

 Hudson's 'Naturalist on La Plata.'
