ZOOLOGICAL SKETCHES 



By J O S E P H WOLF. 



MADE FOR 



THE ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF LONDON, 

 FROM ANIMALS IN THEIR VIVARIUM. 



EDITED, WITH NOTES, 



By PHILIP LUTLEY SCLATER, M.A., Ph.D., F.R.S., 



SECRETARY TO THE SOCIETY. 



This series of Drawings was undertaken with the object of preserving a 

 faithful record of the livini^ characters of the most rare and interesting 

 Animals in the Vivarium of the Zoological Society of London. 



In selecting the subjects, particular regard has been paid to those species 

 which exiiibit aptitude for acclimatization, either as objects of economic 

 value, or simply as additions to the Exotic Animals which are now so 

 frequently seen in the parks and on the ornamental waters of Europe. 



The Drawings have been executed in Water Colours, after most careful 

 study, by Mr. Wolf, who may be fairly said to stand alone in minute 

 knowledge of the habits and forms of Mammalia as well as of Birds ; and 

 the Lithographic copies, partly printed in colour and then finished by hand, 

 are in such exact fac-simile as to be scarcely distinguishable from the ori- 

 ginals. 



The Letterpress, prepared by the Editor, embraces all particulars of in- 

 terest relating to the general history, habits, distribution, and use of the 

 Animals illustrated in the Plates.
