How Elephants (’limb.
Elephants are able to make their
wav up and down mountains and
through a country of steep cliffs,
where mules would not dare to
venture, and even where men find
passage difficult. Their tracks have
been found upon the yerv summits
of mountains over 7000 feet high.
In these journeys an elephant is
often compelled to descend hills
and mountainsides which are al­
most precipitous. This is the wav
it is done: The elephant’s first
maneuver is to kneel dcwn c’-ose to
the declivity. One foreleg is then
cautiously passed over the edge and
a short way down the slope, and it'
he find there is no spot for a firm
foothol I lie speedily forms one by
stamping into the soil if it is moist
or kicking out a footing if it is dry
When he is sure of a good foothold
the other foreleg is Brought down in
the same way. Then he performs
the sain ■ work over again with his
feet, bringing both forelegs a little
in advance for the first hoothold
This leaves good places already'
made for the hind feet. Now
bracing himself up by his huge
strong forelegs he draws his hind
lags, first one and then the other,
carefully over the edge, where they
occupy the first places made by the
forefeet. This is the wav the huge
animal proceeds all the way down,
zigzag, kneeling with his forefeet.
Thus the center of gravity is pre
served anti the huge beast prevent
e<l from toppling over on his nose.
