Like I said yesterday…!

I suspect one or the other is going to require some Mutual of Omaha in the immediate future.

got to remember the water hole is plastic

The Youngling may soon learn not to get too close to any animal showing signs of aggression!

Where’s Marlin Perkins when you need him? And what about Big Jim?

I predict this will end with tears and both youngling and her competitor sent to their respective rooms.

The watering hole is now yellow, due to local destruction of the blue one from the lesser animals male leader.

Lesser animals often have superior defenses. For Clayton, I’m thinking super soaker.

the youngling decides the confrontation isnt worth the hassle and shares the watering hole…

Crocodiles and Hippos sleeping peacefully side by side, locked in glass rigid tension, waiting.

Here we see an ant. This ant is engaged in a life or death struggle with the wolf. You can see the ant creeping up on the wolf on all sixes.

Now he stops to observe. Satisfied that the wolf has not heard him, he approaches nearer. With great skill he chooses his moment and then, quick as a limpet, with one mighty bound

(the arrow moves to the wolf’s throat; the wolf does not move)

buries his fangs in the wolf’s neck. The wolf struggles to no avail. A battle of this kind can take anything up to fifteen years because the timber ant has such a tiny mouth.
