Transcriber's Note:

Some punctuation has been corrected without note, however inconsistent spelling and hyphenation were retained.

Some page numbers in the table of contents have been corrected and/or rearranged to match the actual page order. Many headings in the table of contents do not correspond directly to the headings in the text. These were left as printed. Such headings were linked to the heading in the text which was closest contextually.

Missing page numbers in internal references were added.

The order of illustrations was changed in order to place the illustrations near to the text describing them. Links (in the list of illustrations and within the text) are therefore made to go to the illustration referenced rather than to the page number. The line 'Caracal Defending His Booty from' in the list of illustrations was moved to correspond to the correct illustration.

On p. [73-74], some out of order text was rearranged.

Further corrections are listed below:

[Table of Contents] Vanderoo -> Wanderoo

[Table of Contents] Mongousts -> Mangousts

[List of Illustrations] Mongousts -> Mangousts
