Round and around, one, two, three four, turn around, round and around, one, two, three, four, turn around. What was that? Oh, nothing. I thought it might be feeding time. One, two, three, four. This bush is almost flowering. I wonder if my sisters had her cubs yet. They’ll probably be grown by the time I meet them. One, two, three, four. I heard some humans saying I must be crazy, walking around in circles. But they don’t understand, how could they? I’ve never felt saner. How could they know I sacrificed myself. Someone had to do it. After hearing those humans say our species is endangered. We agreed as a family; something needs to be done. One, two, three, four, turn around. We heard them say, if they can study us, they could save us. And after mother was shot, I knew I had to go. Phew. Feeding time, I hope it’s better than yesterdays. I saw someone’s newspaper this morning. It said our population is steadily rising. They call this food? Vultures eat better than this. I hope I get to go home soon. One, two, three, four. The humans must have finished studying me by now. Hmm. I miss running. But being in here is the only way to save my family. One, two, three, four. Stop.
