In Africa, however, there is an
animal, the hyrax, that even with
hoofs has relearned the trick of
climbing tree trunks and walls.
Each hoof is shaped like a cup, and
the inside of this hoof-cup may be
| pushed in and out.
When the hyrax places its hoof
against a rock or tree, it draws in
| on the center of the hoof and thus
makes the cup-shaped foot cling
just like a boy's leather sucker
clings to the pavement or the wall.
For the suction of the air on the
inside of the hoof pulls hard upon
the rock or tree, and enables the
animal to hold fast. This is just
as marvelous as though a cow
should climb a tree or wall.
And this reminds one of the fact
that some kinds of bats, especially
in Brazil, not content to hang up-
side down by their hooked, toes
only, have grown little disks, like
pads of leather, on the soles of
their feet, so that they may hang |
to a ceiling, or go up the side of
a wall by slapping their hands and!
feet, "keerflap," against it. But we |
should remember that the fly and
the cuttlefish have the same kind
of suckers and can cling for hours
to anything within reach.
Even the flowers have some
strange habits. In Brazil a certain
kind of magnolia, for several
weeks, regularly opens and closes
at certain hours, no matter wheth-
er the day is bright or cloudy,
warm or cool. So regularly does
it do this that the natives are able
more. „ _____________________-------________________ouua.
