Hell yeah! I bagged him!

So there I was, stalking through the brush like a lion...or a bear...or a bear-lion. Anyway we'd come up over that rock wall a while back, so I figured I'd rustle up some supper.

That's when I saw him: the biggest damn rat to ever live. I mean this fella was so huge, his footsteps sounded like he'd turned the ground into a drum, but I caught him dead in the eye! Rat meat ain't exactly a t-bone steak, but it'll feed us for days.

Bet this gets everyone kissing my boots like they're covered in honey, even Imamu! Like my ma's great-aunt Bessie always said: respect ain't given, it's eaten.
