The oxen and horses are found in such numbers, that they require only to be taken by means of a noose, as is done by the Cossacks of the Don, and the peasants of some parts of Italy. There are also wild birds and animals of every species, and particularly jaguars, which are larger here than any where else.

They also like to eat ants; in order to catch them, they place a hand turned up upon the heaps, till the hand is covered, then carry it quickly to their mouth and lick the ants off. If great care is not taken, they lay waste the fields and gardens. But they do not go into the plantations without a scout, but if he has given them the sign of safety, the whole band forces its way into the garden or enclosed field and leave nothing standing. At first they are quite quiet, and if an imprudent
