Abstract
It is rarely that one sees a wild animal at its best. As a hunter, I have shot many beautiful birds and small mammals, but on retrieving them, in spite of my elation at their capture, I have always had the haunting feeling that the dead thing in my hand was not the creature at which I had aimed. As an anatomist, I have dissected scores of animals, but always do I realize that the stiff, cold thing under my scalpel is not quite the thing it was when alive.
