" Three Mamelles," about sixty miles west of Fort Union, early one morning an antelope was heard snorting, and was seen by some of our party for a few minutes only. This snorting, as it is called, resembles a loud whistling, singing sound prolonged, and is very different from the loud and clear snorting of our common deer; but it has always appeared to us to be almost useless to attempt to describe it; and although at this moment we have the sound of the antelope's snort in our ears, we feel quite unable to give its equivalent in words or syllables. The antelope has no lachrymal pits under the eyes, as have deer and elks, nor has it any gland on the hind leg, so curious a feature in many of those animals of the deer tribe which drop their horns annually, and only wanting (so far as our knowledge extends) in the Cervus Richardsonii, which we consider in consequence as approaching the genus Antilope, and in a small deer from Yucatan and Mexico, of which we had a living specimen for some time in our possession. The prong-horned antelope often dies on the open prairies during severe winter weather, and the remains of shockingly poor, starved, miserable individuals of this species, in a state of the utmost emaciation, are now and then found dead in the winter, even near Fort Union and other trading posts. The present species is caught in pens in the same manner nearly as the bison, (which we have already described at p. 97) but is generally despatched with clubs, principally by the women. In the winter of 1840, when the snow was deep in the ravines, having drifted, Mr. Laidlaw, who was then at Fort Union, caught some of them by following them on horseback and forcing them into these drifts, which in places were as much as ten to twelve feet deep. They were broug...
