To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The presence of water beneath the surface of the ground is also discovered at times by means of a baboon. The animal is given some salty food, and water is withheld until the poor creature is almost mad with thirst. It is then led out on a cord, long enough to allow it sufficient freedom to range to right and left. Should water be within a few feet of the surface, the baboon at once detects its presence, and begins digging with its ringers. Spades are procured and a hole is sunk. This plan is o...ften very successful in the dry beds of rivers, or in hollows or other situations where water accumulates after a sudden downfall of rain. The water soaks through the sandy surface and gathers on a stratum of clay, through which it cannot soak ; and although the surface may at the time be dry and baked, yet within perhaps three feet of . The surface there is a considerable quantity of water available if a hole is dug, for the water at once begins to drain into this hole, and may be ladled out. The Cape Baboon, when young, makes one of the most affectionate and loving of pets, and is lively, playful, and free from malice.
