Mr. Roosevelt, rhino, and bustard shot from rhino From a photograph by Kermit Roosevelt zigzags, the dust flying in clouds; and two bulls may sud- denly drop to their knees and for a moment or two iight furiously in their own peculiar fashion. By careful stalk- ing Kermit got some good pictures of the wildebeest in spite of their wariness. Like other game they seem most apt to lie down during the heat of the day; but they may lie down at night too; at any rate, I noticed one herd of hartebeest which after feeding through the late afternoon lay down at nightfall. After getting the bull rhino. Heller needed a cow and calf to complete the group; and Kermit and I got him.
