The head (with the exception of the forehead and vertex), the neck, shoulders, and 
back as far as the loins are covered with long shaggy hair; but on the hips, thighs, 
and legs the fur is short and has the appearance of having been clipped. The hair of 
the occiput and neck is upwards of a foot in length, and forms a long mane, which 
falls back over the shoulders, and at a distance looks something like a full short cloak. 
The whiskers are broad and directed backwards so as almost to conceal the ears ; their 
colour, as well as that of the head, mane, and fore part of the body, is a mixture of 
grey and cinereous, each hair being marked with numerous alternate rings of these 
two colours; the short hair of the hips, thighs, and extremities is of a uniform 
cinereous-brown colour, rather lighter on the posterior surface of the thighs.
