Cut from paper some of the wild animals that Bodo saw eating grass.

Make a picture of what Bodo saw when he was in the tree.

[XVI.]

THINGS TO THINK ABOUT

Can you think why our horses are larger than the wild horses?

How many toes does a horse have on each foot? On what part of the foot does he walk? Where is the horse’s heel? Do you think the horse’s foot has always been the same shape that it is to-day?

On what part of the foot does the cow walk? How many toes does she have?

On what part of the foot does the cat walk? How many toes does she have?

Ancestors of Our Mammals

The wild horses that Bodo saw were about the size of ponies.
