431 (return) [ Prof. Cope enumerates a number of kinds in his ‘Method
of Creation of Organic Types,’ read before the American Phil. Soc.,
December 15th, 1871, p. 20. Prof. Cope takes the same view as I do of
the use of the gestures and sounds made by snakes. I briefly alluded to
this subject in the last edition of my ‘Origin of Species.’ Since the
passages in the text above have been printed, I have been pleased to
find that Mr. Henderson (‘The American Naturalist,’ May, 1872, p. 260)
also takes a similar view of the use of the rattle, namely “in
preventing an attack from being made.”]

respect to the jackal. I have made many inquiries about wolves and
jackals in the Zoological Gardens, and have observed them for myself.]
