Abstract
THE intelligence of animals may be studied in a scientific or in an anecdotal manner. M. Menault has chosen the latter method. We have not been led to form a very high opinion of his physiology or of his general philosophy; but he has compiled a most entertaining volume, crammed with most amusing stories about all kinds of animals, from ants to ourang-outangs. It is illustrated with numerous pictures, some of which are as good as the stories.
