1958^ⓘTranslated by I. O. Evans. This translation begins: "There were seven or eight hundred of them at least. Of medium height, but strong, supple, framed to make prodigious bounds, they gamboled in the last rays of the sun, now setting over the mountains which formed serried ridges westward of the roadstead." <a href="http:///www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/ea.cgi?10928">I. O. Evans</a> is credited as both the person that discovered this Jules Verne work and who translated it into English. (Source: Introduction to the story in <i>The Best from Fantasy and Science Fiction, Eighth Series</i> (1959) published by Doubleday.) Originally published in Le Chemin de France (The Flight to France), in 1887.	English	Gil Braltar

1977^ⓘTranslated by Nikola Popović. This translation begins: "Bilo ih je najmanje sedam ili osam stotina. Srednjeg rasta, ali snažnih, žustrih, gipkih, građenih tako da su mogli zapanjujuće skakati. Poskakivali su obasjani posljednjim zrakama sunca, krećući se sada preko obronaka planina što su se protezale zapadno od luke. Crvenkasti disk Sunca uskoro će nestati, a tama je već bila pala posred toga bazena okruženog udaljenim planinama Sierra di Sanorre i Ronda i opustošene zemlje Cuerva."	Croatian	Gil Braltar
