It is reassuring to know that this animal since 1922 has been an the (practically) prohibited list in the Sudan. The official slaughter of twenty-five in three years is more than enough. Except where special permits for museum purposes are granted, their killing should not be allowed at all. No large animal in my opinion is less harmful, less dangerous, and more easily shot than is this comparatively defenceless walking gargoyle of the bush.
