The sport is about 4,000 years old and probably originated in Arabia or China. For much of this time, falconry was meant to provide meat for the table; it later developed into a popular activity in its own right. Later, with the advent of firearms, interest in falconry declined, although a few people continued in the tradition. Today, it is practiced all over the world. It is the most highly-regulated sport in the United States, which is for the protection of the hawks and falcons. Falconers fly many types of raptors in all sorts of environments. Though we now have the advantage of technologylike telemetry equipmentthe techniques have remained pretty much the same over the centuries. When a hawk is hunting, she is doing what comes naturally to her in the untamed state. Falconry is the only field sport in which man hunts quarry in partnership with a wild animal. The Birds Falconers fly a variety of birds, depending on the available quarry, their license restrictions, the locale, and their personal preference. Some falconers fly great horned owls and some fly eagles, but for the most part, falconers fly the

    Extractions: Vasco da Gama (1460-1524) was a Portuguese explorer who found a route from Spain to the East. Da Gama sailed from Lisbon, Portugal, around Africa's Cape of Good Hope, to India (and back) in 1497-1499. At that time, many people thought that it was impossible to do this since they thought that the Indian Ocean was not connected to any other seas. His patron was King Manuel I of Portugal, who sent da Gama, now an Admiral, on another expedition to India (1502-1503). After King Manuel's death, King John III sent da Gama to India as a Portuguese viceroy (the King's representative in India). Da Gama died in India in 1524. Sir Francis Drake (1545-1596) was a British explorer, slave-trader, privateer (a pirate working for a government) in the service of England, mayor of Plymouth, England, and naval officer (he was an Admiral). Drake led the second expedition to sail around the world in a voyage lasting from 1577 to 1580 (Magellan led the first voyage around the world).

    Extractions: Sir Richard Burton (1821-1890) was the most eclectic and far-ranging of the "eminent Victorian" explorers. His explorations took him to Africa, where he climbed mountains in the Cameroons and hunted gorillas in Gabon, and where, in his search for the source of the Nile, he discovered for the outside world Lake Tanganyika. His anthropological adventures took him through Asia, where he penetrated the forbidden cities of Mecca and Medina, as well as the rough and remote areas of India; to North America, where he tracked down Brigham Young to his stronghold in Salt Lake City; and to South America, where he ran rapids on wild Brazilian rivers, acted as war correspondent in Paraguay, and disappeared for months at a time, leaving from Rio and surfacing eventually in taverns in Lima. He was peerless in his ability to combine within one person the attributes of explorer, scholar, roustabout, linguist, man-of-action, prolific author, and sexologist.

    Extractions: Send it to a friend! Burton was raised in France and Italy and his talent for languages meant that he was fluent in four languages and two dialects before he was twenty: he would eventually learn 25 languages and another 15 dialects. Expelled from Oxford in 1842, he became an officer in the Bombay Native Infantry. Working in intelligence, he was asked to investigate homosexual brothels in Karachi; his explicit study resulted in their closure and also killed his army career. Now intent on exploration, in 1855 Burton planned an expedition with three others, including John Speke, to discover the source of the Nile. They intended to push across Somaliland, but were attacked and were forced to return to England. The two returned to Africa in 1857-58, travelling inland from Zanzibar. It was a difficult trip; when they arrived at Lake Tanganyika, Speke was almost blind and Burton could hardly walk. Speke pushed on alone and discovered Lake Victoria, which he was convinced was the true source of the Nile. Burton disagreed with him, the two became badly estranged and, in September 1864, a debate between the two ended in tragedy when Speke was killed while hunting. Burton's next move was to the Foreign Office, which appointed him consul in Fernando Po, a Spanish island off the coast of West Africa. During his three years there, he gathered enough material for five books that described tribal rituals - including ritual murder, cannibalism and sexual practices - in explicit detail.
