BRITISH EXPLORER IN EQUATORIAL AFRICA

Four Okapi Shot.

A letter from Avakubi, Belgisu Como, states that Dr. Cuthbert Christy, the well- known explorer and scientist, formerly anneciated with the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, and noted for his researches into the causes and spread of sleeping sickness, arrived at that place at the beginning of Match, after a year's exploration of the big forest west of Meni nd the Ruwenzori Mountains, He said his have collected a great deal of

partly interesting material, and some mitogether now animals, besides many details regard. ing the natural history of the okapi." Dr. Christy do po fewer than four specia thx of theme

Dr. Christy, it will be remembered, was appointed by the Belgian Government to explore the Belgsia Congo, to secure adi. tians to the blasés du Congo Belge at Tervneren, bear Bramels, and reached the the Conga first in February, 1912. He has been a siduously at work over since, in *pita of the fact that he has been practical.

A RECOLD 146.

The shooting of the ckapi, and the fact that Dr. Christy has been able to observé this animal in its native haunts, is easily a record. It was known that there were some of the species still existing in the neighbourhood of the Semliki and the Ituri, bat no hito man before had got near enough to observe them. This is the animel, as large, almost, as a tone, which we at fiset considered in England to be a species

of zebra, ne only the

striped reached Great Britain, and it was only when specimens were sent to the Natural History Missoum at Ken-ington, which had been killed by native trackers, that it was realised that the kapi belonged to the same order of ruminants as the giraffe.
