Ways of Nature

Bag om Ways of Nature

Excerpt: ...have a certain association of ideas; one thing suggests another to them, as with us. This fact is made use of by animal-trainers. I Pg 142 can easily believe the story Charles St. John tells of the fox he saw waylaying some hares, and which, to screen himself the more completely from his quarry, scraped a small hollow in the ground and threw up the sand about it. But if St. John had said that the fox brought weeds or brush to make himself a blind, as the hunter often does, I should have discredited him, just as I discredit the observation of a man quoted by Romanes, who says that jackals, ambushing deer at the latter's watering-place, deliberately wait till the deer have filled themselves with water, knowing that in that state they are more easily run down and captured! President Roosevelt, in "The Wilderness Hunter,"
