By EUGENE BURNS Ranger-Naturalist Curiosity is one of the strong est drives in mammals partic ularly in those which are intel ligent. To satisfy their insatiable cur iosity some animals seek vant age point. Perhaps that is why raccoons sometimes climb to the very tip-top of trees, or why a bear crawls far out on a limb to scan the surrounding territory. A moutain sheep will climb a rise to overlook a range, and a deer, a hillock. A giraffe, tall as he is, may stand almost tiptoe to raise his natural periscope just a bit higher to investigate anything which has aroused his suspicion. Shorter animals are not to be outdone. To summon the last quarter inch of height a prairie dog sits on a mound and raises himself on his hind legs the bet ter to see over the grass tops. Shuuld he scamper into his bur row at the first sound of danger, rest assured he'll pause at his guard station, just beneath the surface, and within minutes pop up to satisfy his burning cur iosity. Other animals, even in full flight, stop to satisfy their cur iosity. A jack rabbit, bounding full tilt, often throws on his brakes to stop, look and listen when you whistle sharply. A startled mule deer may leap out of his form, jump stiff -legged a hundred feet at a furious clip, and then foolishly stop and look back to gratify his consuming passion his curiosity. I know . of one instance in which a mountain sheep stood on a lava crest for almost 20 minutes apparently gazing spell bound at a pack mule burdened with a horned sheep's head giving a hunter enough time to hurry back to camp, get a rifle and finish him off. With domestic animals, where fear has been more tempered than in the wild, inquisitiveness is the rule. Horses, cattle, -dogs anJ cats all turn aside to in vestigate something strange and new. Even chickens and aucks set up a clamor as they follow some strange animal in' their inclosure. But then, don't even wild ducks and geese swoop? In the wild, this curiosity sometimes leads to death the curious victim falling to a pre dator, or more often to a rifle. Why then does this curiosity persist? Curiosity is a way of learn ing, and a very important one. It helps the young learn what is dangerous. What to eat. What to leave alone. Where to find its food. When to stay away. In short, to those animals which get their living from hunting or which keep alive by evading capture, it is vitally important to know. That is why to a hunt er trailing a wild animal in the snow, its tracks will frequently disclose how it circled some thing new and strange, cautious ly but then the itch to know will usually triumph and cause it to close in to investigate. Even though curiosity has been credited with killing the tabby cat, it has helped keep alive many a wildcat. In fact, it helped the wildcat lead a well fed existence, that is, when cur iosity was tempered with cau tion as it usually is in the wild.
