COBRAS AT LARGE IN A LINER,. NEEDLESS SLAUGHTER. AS SAFETY STEP. After having brought ten Egyptian cobras nearly, all the way to Australia in the steamer Jervis Bay, Mr W. M. Ward, zoologist at the University of Sydney, had to sacrifice them all. The cobras were imprisoned, in a wooden case, when in mid-ocean Mr Ward discovered that the box had warped and that, through a large crack a number of cobras had escaped. Several of them were recaptured, hut it was impossible to count them as They were all intertwined As there was the prospect of one or more of the deadly reptiles being at large, it was decided to kill the snakes and count them one hv one. When the cobras were killed and thrown overboard Mr Ward was disappointed to find that they had arl been recaptured and that his sacrifice had been unnecessary.
