. Animal heroes; being the histories of a cat, a dog, a pigeon, a lynx, two wolves & a reindeer and in elucidation of the same over 200 drawings. Animals, Legends and stories of. Badlands Billy in the middle completed the setting. No hu- man eye, few animal noses, could have detected the hidden danger of that sandy ground, when the sun and wind and the sand itself had dissi- pated the man-track taint. The Yellow Wolf had seen and passed, and taught her giant son to pass, such traps a thou- sand times before. The Cattle came to water in the heat of the day. They strung down the Buffalo path as once the Buffalo did. The little Vesper-birds flitted before them, the Cowbirds rode on them, and the Prairie-dogs chattered at them, just as they once did at the Buffalo. Down from the gray-green mesa with its green-gray rocks, they marched with imposing solemnity, importance, and directness of pur- pose. Some frolicsome Calves, playing along- side the trail, grew sober and walked behind their mothers as the river flat was reached. The old Cow that headed the procession sniffed suspiciously as she passed the "trap set," but it was far away, otherwise she would have pawed and bellowed over the scraps of bloody beef till every trap was sprung and harmless. 135.
