“In the [first] fifteen years [of field work] I can remember just ten times when I had really narrow escapes from death. Two were from drowning in typhoons, one was when our boat was charged by a wounded whale; once my wife and I were nearly eaten by wild dogs, once we were in great danger from fanatical lama priests; two were close calls when I fell over cliffs, once I was nearly caught by a huge python, and twice I might have been killed by bandits.” YearsFirstsHas BeensI CanTwoMightRememberWifeDogDangerFieldsHugeTenCaughtMy WifeBoatPriestsFifteenWoundedMight Have BeenDrowningCliffsWhalesFifteen YearsLamaPythonBanditsTyphoonsWild DogsClose Calls Author:Roy Chapman Andrews
