. Lives of the hunted, containing a true account of the doings of five quadrupeds & three birds, and in elucidation of the same, over 200 drawings . d the only thing left to do :I went to the garbage-pile itself, and, digging ahole big enough to hide in, remained there allday long, with cabbage-stalks, old potato-peel-ings, tomato-cans, and carrion piled up in odor-ous heaps around me. Notwithstanding theopinions of countless flies, it was not an attrac-tive place. Indeed, it was so unfragrant thatat night, when I returned to the Hotel, I wasnot allowed to come in until after I hadchanged my clothes in the woods. It had been a trying ordeal, but I surely didsee Bears that day. If I may reckon it a newBear each time one came, I must have seenover forty. But of course it was not, for theBears were coming and going. And yet I amcertain of this : there were at least thirteenBears, for I had thirteen about me at one time. All that day I used my sketch-book andjournal. Every Bear that came was duly noted ;and this process soon began to give the desiredinsight into their ways and personalities. Many unobservant persons think and say that.
