A. Bryden author of "Kloof and Karroo" ( Longmans ) , ea s : Some years back some ono baboon having como across the dead body of a milch goat , discovered and extracted the milk-bag , and , like Eve , saw that it was good ' Ills discovery must have boon quickly imparted to his follows , for the Karroo farmers began to lind their milch goats ripped up by these brutes solely for the sweet and luscious milk The baboons , too , becoming ac customed to butchorlng , presently turned tholr attention , to the flesh , nnd will now destroy kids and if they can manage It , goats /or tholr flesh alone " As the author remarks , this modern de velopment of a carnivorous hublt coin cident with the increase of Hocks is.an- nlogouB to that observed in the sheep killing parrot of Now Zealand J.
