Animal Collecting, Africa, Chapter Four

After their fathers injury, Jack and John had to catch animals by themselves. One day, as they were going for a walk, they heard a roar, and when they looked around they saw a male white lion about fifty meters away from them (white lions are not albino, but they are a rare color mutation of a normal lion similar to albinism). They knew that they should not run, as a lions top speed it 50 mph and the fastest human, U. Bolt's, top speed is only 28 mph, and that they should stare at the lions eye and slowly back of, which they did, until they were out of sight. Then they sprinted back to their camp, where they told their father about what happened. "One thing's for sure", declared Jack, "we're going to try to catch that lion!"

  1. I didn't really know that staring at their eyes, then backing off is the best thing to do. Now, I know! How in the world are they going to catch it?? I can't wait to read about it.

    1. Yes, if a lion or usually any cat attacks you you should stare it in the eye and slowly back off, except a leopard, which you should back off slowly but not look in the eye. The reason why you should do that is that almost any wild cat can run faster than you, and it will chase you if you run.

No school!

My sisters and I are home schooled, and the last week we didn't have to do school, doing fun activities instead, such as volleyball, egg and spoon race, and a game in which there are two teams who take turns carrying as much water as they can from one bowl to another in cups on their heads, spilling as least water as they can. The team with the most water in the 2nd bowl at the end of the game wins!
