THE GORILLA AND THE LEOPARD. The great strength of the Gorilla is clearly brought out in the above masterly illustration, which depicts the manner in which it attacks the Leopard. This treacherous animal dare not assail an adult Gorilla, but will prowl around the home of the latter, and, when an opportunity offers, seize and run off with a young one of the family. Being more fleet of foot than the Gorilla he easily escapes with his victim. In this case the Gorilla has come up with the predatory wretch and is making short work of him. The mother with her darling pressed close to her breast is an interested spectator, from her perch on the tree-bough, of the deadly struggle beneath. (7)
