What reading level is Animal Life in Africa volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When not persecuted by man, impala become fairly tame and confident, and are very easy to approach ; but when accustomed to being hunted and harassed they show great suspicion and wariness.
The species now exists in the Sabi Bush in large numbers, and when the unremitting slaughter of thirty years at the hands of both white men and kaffirs, as well as the constant inroads of the carnivora, is taken into account, it is an eloquent tribute to its regenerative power that it should have attained to... at least something of its former abundance. The slaughter reached its culmina- ANTELOPES 107 ting-point at the time of the first construction of the Selati Railway, from 1892 to 1894, when the bush was filled with men armed with guns ; and trucks, piled high with carcasses, were almost daily dispatched down the line. Thence to the outbreak of the war, Europeans during the winter, and natives all the year round, con- tinued to take heavy toll, and during that period itself, first Boer commandos, and later the irregular British corps established in the low country, were unremitting in their happily vain attempts to exterminate the animals.
