Subsequently he was induced to swallow thin slips of 
boiled pork, and was thus fed until the vessel reached the 
Shetlands, when a supply of fresh mussels was provided 
for his use. A large box with openings at the sides was 
fabricated ; and the animal, secured therein, was brought 
safely into Dundee. From that port to London the Wal- 
rus was conveyed in the steamer ‘ Anglia,’ under the care 
of the Society’s Superintendent. 
The only specimen of the Walrus previously acquired 
by the Society was a young individual received in 1853, 
which had been brought home, in a vessel engaged in the 
seal-fishery on the coast of Spitzbergen, by Captain Henry 
of Peterhead. This animal however, was, in a moribund 
state on its arrival, and lived only a few days in the 
Gardens. 
In their last Report, the Council announced that they 
had sent out to Calcutta Mr. C. Bartlett to take charge of 
and bring home to England some valuable animals offered 
to the Society by their Corresponding Members, the Babu 
Rajendra Mullick, Mr. A. Grote, Dr. J. Anderson, and 
other friends in the East. Mr. Bartlett returned to this 
country with his living freight in August last, having 
unfortunately met with some severe losses on the voyage, 
but bringing safely the following collection :—
