Excerpt I learned I could not run away from my fears. I have to protect my kill from predators. I have to protect my territory. I need to be more responsible for my family. The lake was the same and had similar challenges. A crocodile once again snatched my hunt, but this time I was determined to protect my hunt and fight my fears. Without thinking twice, I charged on her with all my fury. She responded with a loud barking of her jaw. I tried to topple her off my kill, but every time she regained her position by lashing her powerful tail vigorously, Machli the great warrior narrated. I was learning from my mistakes. You fought with a Crocodile!! Said Jhumaru in disbelief. Yes, I had to fight. I had a family to feed. After several attempts, I managed to straddle on the crocodile s neck and ripped a large piece of flesh. The bite had the desired effect she shook herself free and moved off towards the lake. I dragged my kill. |
