from America. All barbaric and civilized Californians eat them avidly, and they assure us of their good taste.
Rabbits, and Hares, are smaller than those in other parts of America. They go up in the ravines, and gullies, and sometimes they enter the towns themselves. Wild rats are of extraordinary size. The civilized Indians of the missions of Santiago and San José recount that formerly they ate them by ollandolos?, and by roasting them on the fire; and that even today they are part of the sustenance of other barbarous nations. It is very true that there is a species of hunting snakes that with the desire attract the unhappy butterflies, and small birds to their mouth, and gobble them up. Perhaps in these circumstances one could philosophize in this way: the hot vao? rarifies the air in a straight line: in this there is no doubt. Once this subtler air line is occupied, the other airborne particles that are violated, aspiring by their elastic impulse to regain their first place, snatch the birds with them to the jaws of the clever Snake.
