It is stated that in previous years the mare had been In the habit of allowing calves to suck her, and (says the Journal) the very complacent manner in which she submits to the operation indicates a considerable degree of self-satisfaction and acquired indifference. There is reason to believe that this phenomenon is unique. There are on record numerous cases of young animals being suckled by foster-mothers of a different species, but the combination between the mare and the calf is certainly exceptional.
