DESCRIPTION
They seem mostly head, with little scrawny bodies, long necks and six legs, or, two legs and two arms, with an intermediary pair of limbs which could be used at will either as arms or legs. Their eyes are set at the extreme sides of their heads a trifle above the center and protruded in such a manner that they could be directed either forward or back and also independently of each other, thus permitting this queer animal to look in any direction, or in two directions at once, without the necessity of turning the head.
The ears, which are slightly above the eyes and closer together, were
small, cup-shaped antennae. Their noses were but longitudinal slits in
the center of their faces, midway between their mouths and ears.
They are fully fifteen feet in height and weigh some four hundred pounds
There is no hair on their bodies. Their skin color is olive green and is
darker in the male than in the female. The heads of the adults are very
large.
The iris of the eyes is blood red, as in Albinos, while the pupil is
dark. The eyeball itself is very white, as are the teeth which may be a
foot or more long. These latter add a most ferocious appearance to an otherwise
fearsome and terrible countenance, as the lower tusks curve upward to sharp
points which end about where the eyes of earthly human beings are located.
The whiteness of the teeth is not that of ivory, but of the snowiest and
most gleaming of china. Against the dark background of their olive skins
their tusks stand out in a most striking manner, making these weapons present
a singularly formidable appearance.
The skin color of the childeren is very light yellowish-green color.
The head is out of proportion to their bodies.

"Thoats towered ten feet at the shoulder; had four legs on either side;
a broad flat tail, larger at the tip than at the root, and which it held
straight out behind while running; a gaping
mouth which split its head from its snout to its long, massive neck.
"
"Like its master, it was entirely devoid of hair, but was of a dark
slate color and exceeding smooth and glossy. Its belly was white, and its
legs shaded from the slate of its shoulders
and hips to a vivid yellow at the feet. The feet themselves were heavily
padded and nailless, which fact had also contributed to the noiselessness
of their approach, and, in common with a multiplicity of legs, is a characteristic
feature of the fauna of Mars. The highest type of man and one other animal,
the only mammal existing on Mars, alone have well-formed nails, and there
are absolutely no hoofed animals in existence there. "
