18 ACCOUNT OF FOSSIL TEETH AND BONES 
Germany, the size of which, M. Cuvier says, must have equalled that 
of a large horse. Of the fox there are many teeth (see Plate VI. 
fig. 8 to 14). Of the wolf I do not recollect that I have seen more 
than one large molar tooth (see Plate XIII. fig. 5, 6); the smaller 
molars of the wolf however are very like some of the first set of the 
young hyaena. A few jaws and teeth have also been found belonging 
to the weasel. (Plate VI. fig. 28, 29 ; and Plate XXIII. fig. 
11, 12, 13). Teeth of the larger pachydermatous animals are not 
abundant. I have information of about ten elephants’ teeth, but of 
no tusk; most of these teeth are broken, and as very few of them 
exceed three inches in their longest diameter, they must have 
belonged to extremely young animals. (See Plate VII. fig. 1 and 2.) 
I have seen but six molar teeth of the hippopotamus, and a few 
fragments of its canine and incisor teeth, the best of which are in the 
possession of Mr. Thorpe, of I ork. (See Plate VII. fig. 8, 9, 10, 
and Plate XIII. fig. 7.) Teeth of the rhinoceros are not so rare: I 
have seen at least o0, some of them very large, and apparently from 
aged animals. (See Plate VII. fig. 3, 4, 5, 6.) I have heard of only 
two or three teeth belonging to the horse. Of the teeth of deer 
there are at least three species (see Plate VIII. fig. 9, 11, 13), the 
smallest being very nearly of the size and form of those of a fallow 
deer, the largest agreeing in size, but differing in form from those of 
the modern elk; and a third being of an intermediate size, and 
approaching that of a large stag or red deer. I have not ascertained 
how many species there are of ox, but apparently there are two. 
But the teeth which occur perhaps in greatest abundance are those 
of the water-rat (see Plate XI. fig. 1 to 6, and 11 to 18); for in almost
