THE IIS PECCARY A Fierce Creature Is the South American Wild Boar. HE IS SMALL, BUT FEARLESS Will Attack Man or Any Animal In Ex istence on the Slightest Provocation and Will Fight to the Death A Bat tle With a Jaguar. Duriug one of his journeys into Mex ico Edward W. Walton, a mining ex pert, had a close call from being sliced to shreds by the fierce little South American pigs known as peccaries. He told the story of his escape to a Den ver Post reporter. "I wished to secure some plumes from a number of the beautifully plum aged birds," said Mr. Walton. "I went into the Jungle and came to a small opening in which there were dry leaves, probably a foot in depth, cov ering the ground, and hundreds of beautifully colored trophnl birds in the air and in the trees. I Bred at one of the birds In flight, wh I it seemed to me the whole area of these dead leaves arose in front of anc all around me. Being a stranger, nntu tally I was much frightened, especially when I saw the animals which raised up the leaves apparently ready for an attack. The older animals opened and closed their mouths, showing their big. sharp tusks, formed much like a dirk knife, and some of them started toward me. Impulsively I commenced firing my gun in the air and turned around, which seemed to stop most of them momentarily, and as I had lots of car tridges I kept up the shooting, nnd they turned nnd ran away. I found afterward that I had saved my life by so doing and by not shooting any of the animals. "These animals proved to be pecca ries. Tbey are most ferocious and will attack any animal in existence on the slightest provocation. When I got back to headquarters and told my com panions my experience I was informed that had I shot one of the animals and made him squeal the whole bunch would have been on me nnd would have torn me to pieces quickly. They have been known to kill benrs. jaguars, cattle, horses and any number of dogs. Although In the fight scores of their number might be killed, they seem to have no fear when once aroused. "I was told the peccaries burrow un der the dry leaves to protect them selves from mosquitoes and other winged pests of that hot country. My friends had many exciting experiences to tell iu regard to these ferocious lit tle animals. One of this party, while traveling with a companion in a wag on, stopped for lunch under some trees and turned their horses out to graze. While at lunch a large bunch of pec caries appeared, and they thought it would be nice to shoot among them aud get oue or two for meat, so they Cred into them, wounding several, which commenced to squeal. Then the whole bunch made an attack. The men climbed quickly into the wagon and kept ou shooting so long as the am munition which they had in their pockets lasted. As they were opening tneir bags to get out more ammunition the peccaries climbed up the tongue of the wagon and Jumped into It. and the ineu saved themselves only by Jumping on to the seat and then on to limbs of the trees, the peccaries taking possession of the wagon and tearing things to pieces. They remained in possession for hours, the men watching them from safety in the trees." The peccary, or South American wild boar. Is the smallest of his species, av eraging about three feet long, nor is the nulmal possessed of any unusual degree of strength. To make up for the natural Individual deficiencies in combat with the more powerful anl mills of the Jungle the peccaries al ways travel lu large herds. Whcu once attacked by a herd of peecurlcs the outcome Is nearly always death to their enemy. The little pigs are armed with short eh.irp tusks, and uo matter how gi-er.t tlie slaughter of their own num iicr ilmv.g the melee the herd stay on i lie ;.ii i.ntil the work is finished. :r,u in tropical nnd South A 1 n countries tell of tierce en- lion . between the peccaries and the "' i: - u'l'ii-ter cut which is lord 11 " i iim, i d,, jjimmr has a fond- - n .i iirini r ot pork, but u whole " '' ' -( i for the power of a herd i ih When he wants to sat- ' 1 1 a bus i,,f n ,rk diet he ' '!" ti'om a liinh of a nee on to the "'" l "' a -iiml uIci- In the peccary '" ";- 'I In- Jaguar slays his victim and Ml"!' fi Heats hastily In hi i ,.., I,... live i be herd can et at When Hi' bold grows tired (,r ifCri; for' hi'u to i, .me down ,.n n9 uUnj, j t'v Jaguar i'o s, cuds an vth his!
