and the sources of the Irtish. It is said never to 
drink. 
The Indian race we have scen had the ears two 
inches and a half long, the whiskers abundant and 
long, and the colour, red, was without any black 
tipped hair on the back; it wanted also the black 
spot on the superior part of the base of the tail, or 
it was not observed. 
Another specimen we made a drawing of at Am- 
sterdam was of the size of a small fox, but more 
lightly made; there was much white and grey 
about the face, lips, breast, and under parts, the 
forehead, neck, shoulders, back, upper arm, sides, 
hams, hocks, and tail were of a rufous yellow, with 
a slight intermixture of grey; the back of the ears 
brown, and the tip of the tail dark; the whiskers 
were very long, and the whole animal was similar 
to the Corsac.
