has, we believe, never before been brought alive to Western Europe, and is a rare animal even in museums. In its outward appearance the Saiga is certainly very different from the Gazelles (Gazella), with which it is structurally not very distantly allied, and gives one more the idea of a Sheep than one of the elegant group of Antelopes, although its singular swollen nose renders it very distinguishable from every other known Ruminant. It will be recollected that the Saiga is the only true Antelope that has a high northern rangenearly the whole species of this numerous division of the Bovidae being confined to Africa and South-western Asia.
