To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But I tried a rnild experiment one day by putting a half -grown town-bred puppy into a small inclosure with some hitherto unworried calves, and they all turned to make a common headway against the intruder with the same striking unanimity as the most ancient and experienced cows. Hence I am inclined to suspect that the antipathy does actually result from a vaguely in- herited instinct derived from the days when the ancestor of our kine was a wild bull, and the ancestor of our dogs a wolf, on th...e wide forest-clad plains of Central Europe. When a cow puts up its tail at sight of a dog entering its paddock at the present day, it has prob- ably some dim instinctive consciousness that it stands in the presence of a dangerous hereditary foe ; and as the wolves could only seize with safety a single isolated wild bull, so the cows now usually make common cause against the intruding dog, turning their heads in one direction with very unwonted unanimity, till his tail finally disappears under the opposite gate.
