Text Appearing Before Image:
g at hand. Whetherthe buffalo is dealing with man or beast, it never leaves its victim until it hastrampled every trace of life out of it. The great hunter, Sir Samuel Baker,mentions having seen a buffalo beat off a pair of lions which had attacked it.On another occasion he saw a buffalo pulled down by four lions, but only aftera battle which lasted a couple of hours. In the spring the old bulls have great battles among themselves for thepossession of the females. They become so absorbed in the fight that one can THE BaNTENGE. come easily near them; but should they happen to catch sight of the intruder,they are liable to both drop their quarrel and charge together. Unless a treeis handy, and a thick one at that, the result is unpleasant. When a bull hasdefeated its rival and driven it off the field of glory, the old rascal sets out tolook for another one to fight. On one occasion a victorious buffalo was seento drive its long horns into the flanks of its foe and kill it. THE BANTENGE.
Text Appearing After Image:

It is exceedingly shy, living in the thick jungles near the water.The small bands place a sentinel to keep watch for any enemy. The nativesof Java have managed to catch the bantenge and tame it until it has becomequite a useful animal. The work of ploughing the heavy, sodden rice-fieldscould hardly be done by any other creature. THE ZEBU
