Text Appearing Before Image:
one of the lions that has helped to gain the victorywill be driven off without getting a share. A hunter once wounded a giraffe,but before he could fire a second shot the giraffe rushed off over a hill-side.The hunter followed as fast as he could, and to his astonishment he found thegiraffe in a deadly combat with some lions. After making frantic efforts to getaway, the bullet took effect and the giraffe fell dead. The lions, thinkingthat they had gained an easy victory, had a grand battle between themselvesfor the possession of the carcass. Great authorities on Africa are of the opinion that the lion will becomeextinct within the next hundred years, unless it is strictly protected. In spiteof the fact that the lioness gives birth to six or seven cubs at a time, theseanimals are steadily vanishing before the advance of man. For the huntersof big game it will be a pity when this mighty beast no longer roams thedesert, or breaks the stillness of the tropic night with its deafening roar.
Text Appearing After Image:
BARBARY LION.
