Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wild Game in Zambezia In the States Of the South African Union, or such Of them as have devoted attention to game preservation, most important results have already been Obtained. Had our efforts in this direction only been made twenty years earlier, we Should have been able to save from extinction at least one interesting form which, years ago, occurred in great numbers. I refer to that singular dun-coloured horse, the quagga. This has gone from among us, completely exter minated, it is said, by the rifles of the South African farmers.1 Only just in time came the existing game restrictions to perpetuate that fascinating form, the black wildebeeste, com paratively few of which remain. A few elephants and buffaloes survive in a state of strict pre servation in the Knysna Forest and in the Addo Bush near Port Elizabeth; but it is, I consider, most unfortunate that more was not done years ago in the Cape Colony and elsewhere to establish refugees for the protection Of such families as the brilliant-coloured bontebok and others which have dwindled to a point dangerously near to complete disappearance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Big Game of Africa This volume is not only a narrative of my own wanderings and experiences in that continent, but is also intended to be a guide book to those many who are interested in the life and habits of the African game animals as well as in the best way of stalking these with either camera or gun. For in the many good books on hunting in the Dark Continent, little or nothing has been said that may help the would-be African big game hunter in the selection of the proper outfit, guns, cameras, curing materials, etc., nor do they give him any definite information as to where, when and how to secure the game he wants, and none of them contains the most necessary introduction to the ki-swahili language, even a slight knowledge of which will prove of immense help to the sportsman when hunting in British East Africa, German East Africa and Uganda. This book is the result of my own experiences and observations during three different expeditions to British East Africa, and con tains the most reliable information I was able to obtain from other sportsmen and professional hunters, as well as from the wild sons of that wonderful game country who, themselves, spend most of their lives roaming around among the Big Game of Africa.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Great and Small Game of Africa: An Account of the Distribution, Habits, and Natural History of the Sporting Mammals, With Personal Hunting Experiences It is not claimed for this work that it is complete and final. 'africa is not yet fully explored, and although during the last half - century that great continent has yielded up innumerable secrets of zoology, the discoveries of recent years suggest that forms of animal life, at present unknown to science, may still be awaiting the. Naturalist and the hunter in the remoter and still unknown regions of the interior. It may, however, be claimed that, concerning known species, as much information as it is possible to comprise within the limits of one stout volume is to be found within the following pages. This information has been conveyed in a reasonably popular form, and the non-scientific reader should have little difficulty in laying his finger quickly upon the facts of which he may be in search. It should add to the interest of readers to know that the great bulk of the book has been contributed by well - known African sportsmen, who have had intimate personal experience of the animals of which they treat. These experiences have often extended over a space of many years - Mr. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hunting the Elephant in Africa: And Other Recollections of Thirteen Years' Wanderings For three-quarters of a century there have been capital books written on big game hunting in Africa, one of the best being the earliest, that by Captain Cornwallis Harris. Of course the only type of big game hunter who can write a book really worth reading is the hunter who is also at least to a certain extent an out-of-doors naturalist. In addition, he should thoroughly enjoy the strange desolate scenery of the African wilderness, and have a sympathetic under standing of the Wild men who accompany him on most of his hunts. More and more of late years the best type of big game hunter has tended to lay stress on the natural history and ethnology of the regions into which he has penetrated, and to make his book less and less a catalogue of mere slaughter.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hunting Big Game in the Wilds of Africa: Containing Thrilling Adventures of the Famous Roosevelt Expedition the Whole Comprising a Vast Treasury of All That Is Marvelous and Wonderful in Darkest Africa When it was announced that our distinguished ex-president was to undertake this expedition, he was pronounced by college professors and others, through the press of the United States and Europe, as foolhardy in contemplating such a hazardous trip. From one end of the country to the other the newspapers printed accounts of the dangers he would encounter, and it was widely predicted that Theodore Roosevelt could never return alive.

Download or read book Central African Game and Its Spoor Classic Reprint written by C. H. Stigand and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Central African Game and Its Spoor This handbook is intended as a help or guide to the young or inexperienced sportsman who intends making a hunting trip to Central Africa. Spoor cannot be put on paper to exactly resemble the real thing. In drawing these spoor the outlines have been well defined, and it must be noted that they are taken from picked specimens (distinct impressions in the soil). As may be surmised the finding and sketching of these spoor and dang has cost not a little time and trouble, and in the case of the lesser known or scarcer animals much questioning of native hunters before the information has been deemed reliable enough to be put on paper. It will take months, and perhaps years, of hard experience to tell at a glance to what animal a footprint belongs, and the authors themselves have often felt the want of some fairly reliable handbook while in the field, especially on going to a new country and meeting with species they have not seen before. Before one can question a native a certain knowledge of the language is necessary, and this in itself takes much study. The authors, therefore, have given the native names of the different game. Many of the ideas and conclusions put forward by the authors may not meet with the approval of perhaps older and more experienced sportsmen, but at the same time they are the result of experience, and differences of opinion concerning the habits of animals arise between most sportsmen, no two holding exactly the same views. It will be noticed that the words "generally," "often," or "usually" are of frequent occurrence in describing the habits of animals. We think it the greatest mistake to say that any animal will do this or that, as the behaviour of no two animals is any more alike than that of two human beings. Moreover the same animal may have totally different habits in different localities. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
