For Ms or Not Paul
Some months afterwards they fell off again; the
inspectors were astonished, as they daily saw them
fed, examined the mossaulla, found its ingredients
excellent and the quantity not diminished. The
cause, once more discovered, confirms Abul Fazels
account and evinces the influence the keepers
had attained over these extraordinary animals:
they taught them to receive the balls with
their trunk and convey them to their mouth in
the inspectors presence, but to abstain from eating
them; these docile creatures actually practised
that self-denial ; they received the food they were so
fond of from their hands, put it into their mouth
with their trunk but never chewed it; the balls
remained untouched until the inspectors withdrew
when they took them out and presented them to
the keepers with their trunk ; accepting only of such
a share as they thought proper to allow them. —
