9.9 The hinds trample on the hounds in their efforts to defend their fawns; consequently it is not easy to catch them, unless a man gets amongst them at onceThe author has omitted to explain how this is to be done. and scatters them, so that one of the fawns is isolated.

9.10 The result of this strain on the hounds is that they are left behind in the first run; for the absence of the hinds fills the creature with terror, and the speed of fawns at that age is without parallel. But they are soon caught in the second or third run, since their bodies are still too young to stand the work.

9.11 Caltrops are set for deer in the mountains, about meadows and streams and glades, in alleys and cultivated lands that they frequent.

9.12 The caltrops should be made of plaited yew, stripped of the bark, so as not to rot. They should have circular crowns, and the nails should be of iron and wood alternately, plaited into the rim,The rim (an unsatisfactory rendering) is the same thing as the crown. the iron nails being the longer, so that the wooden ones will yield to the foot and the others hurt it.
