For example, the kanga roo' is a wonder when its strueture is examined in detail. It has enorm-- ou hind legs, which are mov.e ed by muscular cordage of such strength that it tan leap twenty feet at a' spring, and in that way outrun a. fleet Worse. Its four kgs are only miniature limbs, half developed as it were. Then its fur linect pocket for .earry- ing the young, and a huge tail on the piinciple of a pOwerful spring, by which it throws 'itself rapidly- for- ward, are singular deviations from - the normal forT of quadrupeds'. Lastly, it clrews the'cud. Next among the animated anom- alies of Australia is the ornithorync- hus paradoxus, the size of a rabbit with webbed feet, covered with fur, having a bill like a duck and actual- ly lays eggs. The amounts given o its organic form were at first ques- tioned. Naturalists could not cred- it such incongruities or believe quadruped could propagate its young as With, do; from the ineubation of eaus.
