PORCINE DEER. 
only three feet four inches and a half. The 
legs were short, and the feet and hoofs very- 
small ; the colour was yellow, mixed with 
-white spots ; the eye black, and open, with 
large black hair on the upper eye-lid ; the nos- 
trils black, with a blackish band at the corners 
of the mouth ; the colour of the head the same 
with tiiat of the belly, only mixed with grey, 
and brown on the chanfrin and sides of the 
eyes ; the ears very large, garnished on the 
inside with white hairs, and with smooth hair 
mixed with yellow on the outside. The horns 
of this Stag were eleven inches seven lines 
in length, and ten lines thick. The top of 
the back was browner than the rest of the 
body. The tail was yellow above, and white 
below ; and the legs were of a brownish black 
colour." 
The chief essential difference in these two 
animals — the latter of which seems to have 
been overlooked by Pennant, as the farmer was 
by Butfon — consists in the thickness of the 
legs ; added to the spots, and the slight varia- 
tions of colour.
