Cambodia: A sketch of a deer killed by a tiger in the jungle north of Siem Reap,1867.

This drawing by A. de Neuville is based on an original by Louis Delaporte which was sketched during the French Mekong Exploration Commission's two-year venture (1866-68) into the jungles of Indochina. The deer was slain in front of their eyes by the tiger. The French colonialists fired off a couple of shots and drove the animal away, then cut off the stag's hindquarters and carried it to Siem Reap where the meat was salted, and fed the explorers for several days.
