To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is doubtless caused chiefly by the way in which they tear up the roots of trees. Following herds in narrow passes, I have often come upon large numbers of big pieces of tusks broken off in steep and rocky places. I have preserved several such pieces in my collection. The elephant uses his tusks with great skill in tearing off the bark from trees. He chews this Ixirk or sucks out the sap and then throws it away. He chiefly attacks trees of which he can detach the bark with one prod of his tus...k without stopping. I could often follow the track of the herds for miles by the help of these marks on the tree-trunks. It set me thinking of Robinson Crusoe, who records the same thing. One often finds, t(.)0, smaller trees which have been quite trodden down or snapped in two. I fancy that the rending off of the bark and the breaking of the trees helps to develop the tusks, apart from the exercise obtained by the fighting of the bulls amongst themselves. In some cases the branches of the trees seemed to be broken off without any desire for food on the part of the animal which made the onslaught.
