The Spring Bok is found throughout the whole of South 

 Africa, but in no part so numerously as in the colony, the north- 

 eastern division of which they traverse in herds of thousands, 

 devouring everything they meet with in their course. They re- 

 main only a portion of the year, and it is during that season the 

 Lion is most frequently found there. Vast numbers are killed, 

 and the flesh dried against a season of scarcity. A. Smith. 



The Sprinabock at certain periods make a trak bokJcen or 

 grand migration. They march slowly and steadily along, like the 

 flood of a river, about half a mile in width. These vast legions 

 will continue streaming along in an unbroken, compact phalanx 

 for two or more hours. R. G. Gumming, Hunter's Life, i. 122.
