What reading level is American Types of Animal Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There are, however, two animals which have been supposed to possess an exceptional relationship to the ungulates — namely, the elephant and the hyrax, or cony of Scripture.
But before considering the right which these two very different kinds may possess to claim a real affinity to the ungulates — that is, to all kinds of cattle — we must con- sider a few structural characters bearing upon the dis- tinctions which exist between hoofed beasts and other beasts and between different groups of ungu...lates them- selves. Now, in the first place, the fully developed foot of a beast — like the foot of man — consists of five toes, the end of each being furnished with a nail or claw.
Each toe is supported by three bones attached, end to end, within it, except the great toe, which has but two.
These five series of toe-bones are each respectively attached to the end of one of five longer and stronger bones, which lie along the middle of the foot, and so may be called middle-foot bones. They are attached by their other ends to a group of short bones,'which may be called ankle bones, the hindmost of which forms the heel.
