INTRODUCTORY PREFACE xi 



no interest to the general reader, the latter may 

 possibly be of some use to any one travelling 

 over the route we covered. 



In addition to Dr. Smith, I must also express 

 my gratitude to Mr. C. H. Steevens, Mr. William 

 Christie, Mr. James Ross, Mr. R. I. Pocock, 

 Superintendent of the Zoological Society's Gardens, 

 and in particular Mr. Fenwick-Owen, for infor- 

 mation and photographs with which they have 

 kindly supplied me. 



Some of the following pages have appeared in 

 the form of articles in "Country Life," "The 

 Badminton Magazine," and "The Field." My 

 best thanks are due to the editors of these papers 

 for permission to reprint them.
