Jack and John tried to capture the white lion, as white lions are so rare that out of the 20,000 lions left there are only about 300 white lions in zoos and 13 known white lions in the wild, but it was to smart to let them catch him. They decided to follow him to the place where his pride lived (lion prides don't live in dens, and have about 15 square miles of hunting territory, but the pride spends most of the day under a tree). When Jack and John did follow the lion, which they named winter, they were surprised to see that the pride was made up of Winter, one ordinary male lion, five ordinary lionesses, (female lions) two white lionesses, four ordinary lion cubs and two white lion cubs! (that's two male lions, seven lionesses and six cubs, or five white lions and ten ordinary ones) Suddenly the lions in the pride all stood up. They had spotted a zebra herd, and suddenly one of the ordinary lionesses jumped on a zebra. The other zebras scattered, and all of the lions but the cubs bounded into the fight. While they were away the boys captured the white lion cubs, brought them to camp and set a trap for the other lions. It was a net in the tree, and if any of the lions stepped or lay on a rope the net would fall on them and they would be captured. The next day when the boys arrived with the truck they found out that the net had fallen on winter and one of the white lionesses. they captured them and put them in a cage, brought them to camp and reset the trap. The next day when they went there the net had caught the last white lioness and the ordinary male lion. They let the male one go free and put the white lioness in the large lion cage with the other white lions.
Peter was going on a trip to the Galapagos islands (a group of islands about 2,600 miles away from America, famous for having many animals on it that only live there, such as the Galapagos tortoise and the Marine iguana). One night, he woke up in the midde of a storm, with his boat sinking! The boat didn't have any lifeboats, so Peter grabbed a gun, bullets, gunpowder and a bag of corn, threw a barrel overboard, dived in after it, and swam to one of the Galapagos islands that was nearby, resting on the barrel when he was tired. Unluckily, it was uninhabited (nobody lived on it), but he at least survived the storm. Two and a half years later, he lived in a large cave, had a pet Galapagos hawk (a large, brown hawk breed. The main predator of the Galapagos islands) called Flyer and owned a large cornfield. Galapagos Hawk
