 * Babyhood of Wild Beasts - Little Coco came from Ceylon.png
 * From the private collection of W. T. Hornaday
 * Little "Coco" was caught running wild with his mother on the Island of Ceylon. Last year I met him at Barnum and Bailey’s Circus. He introduced himself by gathering wisps of hay from the floor, rolling them into a neat bundle and presenting his gift to me with his long, sensitive trunk. He took to civilization like a duck to water and has developed into the cleverest trick animal in captivity.

 * Our African Elephant is distinguished from its Indian cousin by its great, fanlike ears and corrugated trunk. The females of this species are constructed to be well-nigh tireless. The life of the average elephant is one hundred years, and in all probability the animal never lies down during his entire lifetime.
