OTHER GAME ANIMALS IN THE 
CAUCASUS 
I N addition to the animals described in the foregoing pages the sports- 
man may meet with an occasional roe deer while still -hunting in the 
forests; there are wolves and lynx as well, but these are both extremely 
shy, and if seen at all usually appear at some inconvenient moment 
when the rifle is not handy. 
In certain localities wild boar exist in considerable numbers for 
those who care for that kind of shooting. 
As regards clothing the same kind of garments one would wear stalking 
in Scotland will be found quite suitable in the Caucasus; but for hill climb- 
ing in hot weather something rather light is an advantage. 
On most of the ground well -nailed boots are the best form of foot gear. 
A pair of rubber shoes should also be taken; these can be carried in a 
rucksack, which is the most convenient means of packing miscellaneous 
property.
