An Unpopular Peace Advocate takes a stand amidst the chaos of Senor Silvela's mobbing at the Comedie Francaise on the 25th of February 1830. Meanwhile, in the natural world, a hissing African Wildcat (Felis silvestris lybica) defends its territory in Libya, North Africa. In contrast, a hissing goose may not bite but its warning is clear, as a pair of Greylag Goose (Anser anser) x Domestic Goose (Anser anser domesticus) hybrids protect their nest. And even the majestic Mute Swan (Cygnus olor) hisses a warning with a fierce display of its head and neck at Lackford Lakes Nature Reserve in Suffolk, England.
