Show South African Racket Cape Providence, South Africa, is preparing drastic action against Ihe money-making racket of "jackal breeders," it is stated in Capetown. It has been discovered that in parts of the province professional hunters, hunt-ers, who destroy jackals for bounties have been capturing only the cubs, allowing adult animals to escape, and thus providing for the next season's "crop." It is suspected that in certain districts there are secret jackal breeding establishments, establish-ments, the owners of which make big profits by constantly turning in very young jackals. Last year the record number of 36,000 were destroyed de-stroyed at the standard rate of $2.50 an animal. In some districts $3.75 is paid. |
