| Some nature notes | |
| 1910 Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society (19): 399-409 | |
When I asked by our Honorary Secretary to contribute a paper on the habits of tigers I replied that surely these habits had already been described down to the last stripe. At the same time Mr. Millard drew my attention to Mr. Serous' recent book _African Nature Notes and Reminiscences_, containing several chapters of notes on the lion, and it occurred to me that a comparative study of the habits and nature of the lion and tiger might be of interest. In reading Mr. Selous' book many points of similarity, or of marked differences, between these and other African and Indian animals occurred to me, and I was led to make comparative notes, from an Indian sportsman's point of view, with regard to my own experiences of matters referred to by the African hunter. |
