To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is singular how widely distributed the elephant has been, and in how very few countries he can now be found. The skeletons of his ancestors are preserved in many of our museums, and their bones are whitening almost within the polar circle, where the whalers often find them, coated with ice, their tusks adding to the poor sailors' prize- money. CHAPTER X. HUNTING THE EHINOCEROS. FTER the elephant, the rhinoceros is the largest animal on the globe ; and I have followed him along the great rive...rs, through the marshes and dense forests of Southern Africa, India, Java, and Sumatra, where alone he is now found, although, like the elephant, he was once much more common. There are two varieties living, — one with one horn, the other with two ; and it is to the latter class that the African rhinoceros belongs. His eyes are small and deep-set ; his horns — one in front of the other — are of different size and conical in shape, and not attached to the bone of the nose, but simply to the skin, which is almost hairless except at the tail, and along the ears.
