Physiology

Edmund Heller greatly appreciated Theodore Roosevelt’s kind wishes for his latest safari in Africa, but Heller is sure that his experience will not be as good as the time he spent with Roosevelt during Roosevelt’s safari. Heller provides some thorough remarks about the physiological differences he has found between the giant eland and the common eland, as well as white rhinoceroses and black rhinoceroses.
