The flesh of all these sorts of Apes they account good to eat.

There are several sorts of Squirrels also, which they do eat when they can catch them.
Before I make an end of my discourse of their Beasts, it may be worthwhile to relate the ways they use to catch them.

At which they are very crafty.
[How they catch wild Beasts.] For the catching of Deer or other wild Beasts, they have this ingenious device.

In dark Moons when there are drisling Rains, they go about this design.

They have a basket made with canes somewhat like unto a funnel, in which they put a potsheard with fire in it, together with a certain wood, which they have growing there, full of sap like pitch, and that will burn like a pitch-barrel.
