OTHER KULU-KAMBAS 



187 



kulu is higher or lower than the highest specimen of 

 the common chimpanzee or not, but taken as a 

 whole they are much superior. I shall not describe 

 at length the specimens which have been known in 

 captivity, since most of them have been amply de- 

 scribed by others ; but it is not out of place to 

 mention some of them. 



If proper conditions were afforded to keep a pair 

 of kulus in training for some years, it is difficult to 

 say what they might not be taught. They are not 

 only apt in learning what they are taught, but they 

 are well-disposed, and can apply their accomplish- 

 ment to some useful end. We cannot say to what 

 extent they may be able to apply what they learn 

 from man, because the necessity of doing so is 

 removed by the attention given them.
