Today was the day the student surpassed the master.
At just before sunrise the yellow female woke up and set off with one thing on her mind: Get a kill and bring it for breakfast. Nafasi wanted to show him that she'd heard everything he'd been telling her over the past week or so.
It didn't take her long to find her target, a heard of zebra not too far from their sleeping quarters. She'd already scoped them out yesterday and found out that there's an older, injured zebra that runs in the back with the slower babies. She wasn't going after foals today, oh no. That zebra that was injured was going down.
It took her two hours of stalking to get in the right position, and then she attacked.
Needless to say, she was now trying to drag a dead zebra to the den. It was so much larger than her, and it was heavy, but she was slowly moving it. A tug here, a tug there, and she had to constantly bark at vultures who tried to pick at her kill. So far no cats had come to investigate, or hyenas, so Nafasi thinks she's in the clear.
