while herbivores are represented by Chital and Sambar (above) deer, Wild Boar , Nilgai antelope, etc. Wild Boar stands next to the road, watching us without nervousness or fear. Occasionally we go so quickly that we may be posing a danger for jay-walking animals… …and then, for no obvious reason, we suddenly stop!

In mid-December, I was birding along the Beljarica levee (Beh-LYAH-ritza), my local patch north of Belgrade, when something other than birds attracted my attention: three wild boars , appearing all black because they had just swam through the swamp to reach the bottom of the levee. I think all were males, at last two huge ones certainly were.

In the morning, still sleepy, we enter the jungle, where a sounder of Indian Boars (a long-maned subspecies Sus scrofa cristatus ) is watching us, standing among the first trees, right next to the road. Well, one reason might be – this animal is not only endangered, but even rarer than the Tiger! It is too early to show.

So here it is, the review of Tracks and Signs of the Animals and Birds of Britain and Europe by Lars-Henrik Olsen. This is like Sibley calling his bird guide “The Sibley guide to Birds of Massachusetts and North America” The latter sounds silly, right? So what is one to think of the former?
Animal Ethics
OCTOBER 6, 2009
Code, Title 18.48, made it a federal crime to knowingly create, sell, or possess a depiction of animal cruelty with the intention of placing that depiction in interstate or foreign commerce for commercial gain. Is the NYTimes right to support striking down the law banning depictions of animal cruelty on First Amendment/free speech grounds?

Somewhere below that mysterious eagle, at the far shore of the lake, lies one Bengal Tiger … and further to the right – two more! On her own, two months ago, she took down a big, old and experienced Indian Boar , who already had some old tiger claw scars. We have met the daughters of Telia, the Tigress of the Lake.
