Hippo Lasso. 



Hj means of the Hippo Lasso, or Equine Straight Jacket, 

 nervous and even vicious animals may in a short time be ren- 

 dered docile and safe. There are sever'al different designs of 

 the Hippo Lasso ; however, the result obtained by use of either 

 one of them is the same. To prevent being kicked the hippo 

 lasso is sometimes used preparatory to applying hobbles.

Oalvayne's Rope Hippo Lasso. 



The rope hippo lasso of Galvayne, Figure 55, will effectually 

 confine all four legs of a horse, in the standing posture, with a 

 single rope. It is possible to put this apparatus on vicious 

 horses, even those which are wild and unbroken. It can be 

 applied without injury to the animal or danger to the operator. 

 As a means of subjection and restraint this equine straight 

 jacket of Galvayne is second to none.
