How it had been possible for the animal to fall from the over- hanging cliff without landing far out in the river, I cannot imagine. My pleasure was doiibled when I found that it was coal-black, and of a totally different species from those we had ob- tained on the Snow Mountain. It is, of course, impossible to say whether it will prove to be new to science until it has been carefully studied, but it is an extraordinarily rare animal even in that region, and none have been taken from localities within many miles of where this specimen was killed. Se- curing this serow was one of the for- tunate occurrences which sometimes happen to a sportsman, but one might "■still hunt" for even months without being able to get another in the same way. Besides goral and serow, the Snow ^Mountain yielded us the blue,or crested, muntjac, the rarest specimen which we obtained u))()n tlie entire expedition. These beautiful little deer have a dark slate-blue coat and a rather bushy tail, white beneath, which, when the animal is running, is displayed as prominently as the "flag" of the Virginia deer. The first time 1 ever saw one of these splendid animals was when Hotenfa and I were bringing in two gorals which we had killed during the day. The big red dog, although dead tired, had disappeared alone into the heavy forest below us. Sud- denly we heard his deep bay coming up the hill in our direc- tion. Hotenfa and I dropped The two little Tibetan bear cubs, pur- "liased from a native at Teng-yueh, are playing about the motion picture camera. One of the cubs died when about six weeks old, but the other was brought to N'ew York.
