266 THE DEER OF AMERICA.
That the odor emitted by these glands is left upon the track of the deer may be presumed, but as the trail of other animals not provided with these organs seems to be as readily followed by the hounds, we may safely conclude that they are not the only sources of the scent left in the track. The capacity of an animal to leave a scent which may be followed by an enemy, would seem to be detrimental to its safety or well being, es- pecially in a wild state, but it is common
... to most if not all ter- restrial animals. There are compensating advantages, no doubt, at least to some extent, for it enables them to find companions which they might otherwise seek in vain.
Whatever may be the uses of these glands, certain it is that they are very active, constantly secreting matter ; and this, in every case where I have examined the live or recently killed animal, emits a pungent odor.
I prefer rather to give the facts, than to advance or maintain doubtful theories.
The longer and the more minutely I have examined this gland- ular system on the hind legs of the different species of this genus, the more I have become impressed with its importance in the division into or identification of species.
