As a red fox ran through the forest, rain poured down on her. The wind blew hard making it difficult to run full speed. She stopped for a moment and looked for shelter. She could hear barking and gunshots in the background. She started to run again. She ran for a few minutes before she found a small hold in the ground. She took a sniff and cautiously poked her head inside. The hole appeared to be abandoned so she quickly huddled up in it and hoped she wouldnt be found. Moments pasted and no barks or gunshots were heard.She felt somewhat safe as she slowly drifted to sleep.
The next morning she timidly arose from the hole. Scanning the area, she saw nothing that would be of harm. She started her search for food. She walked around sniffing the ground hoping to find something. She came across a blue berry bush. As she nipped the berries off the bush, she heard a rustling sound from the bushes behind her. She quickly turned around. Her heart beating rapidly, she slowly backed away. When she saw something start to emerge, she made a quick jolt to her hole.Running as fast as she could, she stumbled and fell. She quickly sprang up and scanned the area. Nothing...She smelled the air and caught the scent of meat. She followed the sent until she found a small scrap of it. To distracted by the smell of food, she didnt notice she was walking right into a trap. She began to quickly tear the meat apart and swallow it whole. Then, cage door shut behind her and she realized she had just been trapped.
