. Animate creation : popular edition of "Our living world" : a natural history. Zoology; Zoology. ilACKEREL.—/SiX'/Zi^tv scombrus. HORSE MACKEREL. —r;»c/i«/«^- saurue. unfit for consumption in a very short time after being taken out of the water; and in con- sequence of tills property, the London costermongers are permitted to hawk it about the streets on Sundays, much to the discomfort of peaceable householders who long for repose nd do not want TONNY.—Oreynus Ihynnus. The Tunny does not visit the European coasts in sufficient numbers to be of any com- mercial importance ; but on the shores of the Mediterranean, where it is found in very great abundance, it forms one of the chief sources of wealth of the sea-side population. In May and June, the Tunnies move in vast shoals along the shores, seeking for suitable spots wherein to deposit their spawn. As soon as they are seen on the move, notice is given.
