. Big game hunting in Africa and other lands; the appearance, habits, traits of character and every detail of wild animal life ... Hunting -- Africa; Animal behavior. HUNTING THE ANTELOPE Colonel Roosevelt Bags a Gnu, or Wildebeest, on Sir Alfred Pease's Estate—Excite- ment and Danger of the Hunt—His First Victim on African Soil—Facts About the Many Varieties of Antelope That Crowd the East African Velt. Riding on the cowcatcher along the Uganda Railroad Colonel Roosevelt almost seemed to be passing through a zoological garden, so numerous were the representatives of the East African fauna that could be seen from the train. Zebras, gazelles, giraffes, and water bucks were either quietly grazing on both sides of the track or crossing it only a few hundred yards ahead of the train. Agile monkeys were swinging in the branches of the giant trees that formed groves and copses here and there on the velt, and now and then a lightfooted antelope, scared by the steam whistle, would startle and rush.
