Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Earth and Animated Nature, Vol. 3: Part II Every bird of this kind, habituated to marshy places, may be known, if not by the length of its legs, at least by the scaly sur. Face of them. Those who have observed the legs of a snipe or a woodcock, will easily perceive my meaning; and how different the surface of the skin that covers them is from that of the pigeon or the partridge. Most birds of this kind also, are bare of feathers half way up the thigh; at least, in all of them, above the knee. - Their long habits of wading in the waters, and hav ing their legs continually in moisture, prevents the growth of feathers on those parts; so that there is a surprising difference between the legs of a crane, naked of feathers almost up to the body, and the falcon, booted almost to the very toes. The bill is also very distinguishable in most of this class. It is, in general, longer than that of other birds, and in some finely fluted on every side while at the point it is possessed of extreme sensibility, and furnished with nerves, for the better feeling their food at the bottom of marshes, where it cannot be seen.' Some birds of this class are thus fitted with every convenience; they have long legs, for wading; long necks for stooping; long bills, for searching; and nervous points, for feeling. Others are not to amply provided for; as some have long bills, but legs of no great length; and others have long necks, but very short legs. It is a rule which universally holds, that where the bird's legs are long, the neck is also long in proportion. It would indeed be an incurable defect in the bird's conformation, to be lifted upon stilts above its food, without being furnished with an in strument to reach it.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Earth and Animated Nature, Vol. 2 All birds are covered with feathers, and they are the only animals which, properly speaking, are so. These feathers are of two sorts - feathers for clothing, to protect the animal from the vicissitudes of the weather, and feathers for ight. Both of these are beautifully modified, so as to suit the different habits of the several species, and adapt them to the climates and the ele ments in which they find their food.

In this manner the dog and the jackall pursue their prey; and the wolf and fox, which are of this kind, though more solitary and silent among us, yet in coun tries where less persecuted, and where they more fearlessly display their natural inclinations, they are found to keep togetherdn packs, and pursue their game with alternate hnwlings.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Earth, and Animated Nature, Vol. 2 of 6 As man, in all the privileges he enjoys, and the powers he is invested with, has a superiority over all other animals, so in his necessities he seems inferior to the meanest of them all. Nature has brought him into life with a greater variety of wants and infirmities than the rest of her creatures, unarmed in the midst of enemies. The lion has natural arms, the bear natural clothing; but man is destitute of all such advantages, and, from the superiority of his mind alone, he is to supply the deficiency. The number of his wants, however, were merely given in order to multiply the number of his enjoyments; since the possibility of being deprived of any good, teaches him the value of its possession.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Earth and Animated Nature, Vol. 4 of 6 These names do not make two distinct kinds, but are only given to l variety of the same animal, which has, however, subsisted time imme morial. The principal, and perhaps the only sensible difference, by which those two races are distinguished, consists in this, that the camel has two bunches upon his back, whereas the dromedary has but one; the latter, also, is neither so large, nor so strong, as the camel. These two races, however, produce with each other, and the mixed breed formed between them is considered the best, the most patient, and the most indefatigable of all the kind. Of the two varieties, the dromedary is by far the most numerous, the camel being scarcely ever found, except in Turkey, and the countries of the Levant; while the other is found spread over all the deserts of Arabia, the southern parts of Africa, Persia, Tartary, and a great part of the eastern Indies. Thus the one inhabits an immense tract of country, the other, in comparison, is confined to a province; the one inhabits the sultry countries of the Torrid Zone, the other delights in a warm, but not a burning climate; neither, however, can subsist or propagate in the variable climates towards the north; they seem formed for those countries where shrubs are plenty, and water scarce where they can travel along the sandy desert without being impeded by rivers, and find food at expected distances; such a country is Ara bia, and this, of all others, seems the most adapted to the support and production of this animal.
