To Etieene Gallet, of Arles, was reserved the privilege of discovering, in lonely and inaccessible regions, the localities where these wild and magnificent creatures assure the future of their race. To him we owe our knowledge of the most intimate details of thier life." Illustrated with 53 wonderful black and white photographs by the author. Includes statistical information on the colonies, bibliograpy. 127 pp.
