SOUTH AMERICAN ANIMALS.
Fig. 1. The great weasel, Mustela barbara. Linn.)
This species of weasel is the largest of all known ones; for it is 22 inches from head to tail, and its tail is 13 inches long, and is also one of the wild animals. It is almost entirely black in color; Only the head, neck and throat are dirty and the paws are brown. By the way, her body is shaped like another weasel. It lives primarily in Brazil and Chili, in forests, rocky clefts and caves, and hunts particularly wild fowl, young hares and other small animals. Their fur makes a good fur coat.
Fig. 2. Der dreifarbige Fuchs. (Canis grey-silver. Linn.)

The tricolored fox is native to all of South America, but especially to the Strait of Magellanics and Paraguay. It is particularly valued for its beautiful fur. It is light gray with black-gray hues, the belly is silver-white, the muzzle is black, the ears, like the paws, are brown. His eyes are shaped like those of cats, so that he can also see at night. Like the European fox, it lives in burrows underground and feeds on the predation of wild fowl and small animals.
