To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The little American monkey, who was a warm friend of this keeper, lived in the same large compartment, and was dreadfully afraid of the great baboon. Nevertheless, as soon as he saw his friend the keeper in peril, he rushed to the rescue, and by screams and bites so distracted the baboon that the man was able to escape, after running great risk, as the surgeon who attended him thought, of his life. Besides love and sympathy, animals exhibit other qualities which in us would be called moral ; an...d I agree with Agassiz that dogs possess something very like a conscience. They certainly possess some power of self-command, and this does not appear to be wholly the result of fear. As Braubach remarks, a dog will refrain from stealing food in the absence of his master. Dogs have long been accepted as the very type of fidelity and obedi- ence. All animals living in a body which defend each other or attack their enemies in concert, must be in some degree faithful to each other ; and those that follow a leader must be in some degree obedient.
