■Ulil.lt> Uamlnf to Climb..
The effects open animals of a change
in thecnmlitirmaof their life Is n favorite
topic nmmiK zoologists, who find that
, nearly every species of animals existed
in some other than Its present form at
same previous epoch of the world The
whale, h.r instance, was once a land uni
inal Fumed to take water for a living
he became in lime mnch more like a fish
in siiu|ie tlian like a land nniinai
According to a Tasmanian' paper a
111.»11fii'iin.>r> ,.f the form oh a .familiar'
Eiirfi’(»*an animal is going on in the
Australian 'vorl.i under the eye of the
people there
The Allstntliau rabbit. tnijmrti'it from
fCliglamt is aci|niring nails on ins feet
and learning to climb. As if well known
the rabbits ol Australia have increased
to such enormous number* tlini they
have become a great pest' swarming
over the land and devonnng the rami
eve crops
In order To protect their rields the
fanners pnt up wire netting in place of
fences. The rabbits could not gel
through these, but they presently Iwgan
to burrow beneath them.
Then tile lannera sank the nettings six
'tre’ghi inches Into thesotl. Tills <io|i|ied
the rabbits rnnu getting in ny digging
but they presently began to attempt v
climb over the netting
As the result of this climbing, it Is
said, the rabbit, are developing a nail in
their uan The nail development has
been noticed in Qneeuslaml. and still
later in Tasmania.
According to the theory of narnnt
selection, it is likely presently to luipia-i.
that in certain districts only those rab
bits will survive which can climb al
least a little, and in this way a race of
climbing rabbits may be devalu|ied.-
