■■' A tunnel runs from heap to heap, about 2 below the surface until it 

 turns down to the nest, and is usually produced, for a short distance, beyond 

 the nest as a blind ally. A hole is always left in the heap, at the mouth of 

 the tunnel, when the beast leaves its burrow, and is closed when it returns 

 underground. This animal is slow on the surface of the ground, but it 

 can and does bite badly. When attacked, it will always turn found to face 

 its attacker, and make a hissing noise, with the mouth wide open ; the gape 

 is very wide; it can see, but not well." — J.M.D.M.
