They don't perform in the familar eapar- ings of the big cats, or do tricks like the elephant. -- Roo-goers will travel agood \ distance to admire the grace of a giraffe 'or size of the hippopotamus, but it's as though they were flookirg at a threoe-dimensional picture. They don't have any affection for the animal, or krow what to look for, or what to expect from him. \The giraffe, for instance, is mote than a long neck with 2: gentile disposition. He is described by professional buntzips as easily tamed, and capable of grest affection. Ono of their admirers, gate cone servitinmist and T. Mrutay 5mm, {was m1 ae about tree-top high for his con- venience. A pair would be purchased, and DiSabato described the means of capture, Other than the dart gun and trarquillzer method. \R is almost easier on the animal,\ he said, \to catch it with a pole noose after ashort chase by land rover. I talked to a games trapper in Africa who says that the capture of 2a giraffe can take as little as three mirntes of chasing, after which they are quickly moved fcto a suitablecrateandtrans» ferredto the boiding compound,\ Disabato said that after as little as three or tour days the gentile animals will aqppromwh the trappers and eat fromm their tans.

Thecommon giraffe has the strawberry leaf-pattern; the northern or reticulated have markings similar to a white net with large meshes. 'The hippopotamus may be semething of a clod as far as persocality goes, but he has redseming features. One of them is dispesition. In spite of the fact that he's one of the largest of the land animais, with tusks for teoth, ho's slow to anger and has to have real provocation before te'll at- tack.
