THREE NEW SPECIMENS ADDED TO COLLECTION

A male and a female of the shyest of all species of African antelopes, the Bongo, and a Giant Forest Hog, so large that it might be mistaken for a small rhinoceros, are the latest very valuable additions to the mammal collection of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard. The animals were shot by Frederick G. Carnochan '13 on a recent trip to East Africa.

The pair of horns of the male Bongo just received are among the finest in any collection. The animal is usually found in the dense forests of West Africa. These specimens are of the Eastern race which is confined to the highland forest areas of Kenya Colony. They have more massive horns than the West African race and the hide has a richer and brighter rufus color. The most characteristic things about these animals are the white cross stripes on the hide and the smooth, open, spiral form of the horns.
