BIRTHS AT LONDON ZOO
(BrUtsa Ottlctai Wireless.)
RUGBY, October 28.
Among recent births in the London Zoological Gardens are an ocelot kitten and an American bison. Ocelots have not been bred in the gardens for nearly eighty years, and the kitten was found in the cage of a female that had arrived only a fortnight before. Bison breed regularly in captivity, which is fortunate, as the species is nearly extinct in its natural state. London Zoo has recently received a baby crocodile, now only six inches long, which is expected to grow to the full length of ton Eect in about forty years.
