194 THE SPOTTED DEER. 



March, April, and May are the best months for shooting Chi'tal on foot in the Sewaliks. 

 A good deal of the grass has then been burned, and the deer are easily found among the low 

 hills, especially in the vicinity of water. This shooting in the Sewaliks is about the most 

 delightful I know. A great variety of animals may be met with, and several shots may 

 generally be obtained during the day.
