Sketches of Native Life in India - Hunting Leopard, Bengal, 1858. Creator: Unknown
Sketches of Native Life in India - Hunting Leopard, Bengal, 1858. We are indebted to the sketch-book of Mr. Marshall Claxton for the...series of characteristic Sketches of a few of the manners, habits, and customs of the natives of India...a Chetah (or hunting leopard) before he has been "slipped." It is usual to blindfold them with a hood, and then drive them in a native cart to the hunting-ground. The chetah is a sharp-sighted creature: the moment the hood is removed he stands up, looks inquiringly round, sees his game, apparently seems to choose the best road to it, jumps quietly off the cart, and then takes either a sneaking run, or a high gallop, as the case may be'. From "Illustrated London News", 1858
