She hadn't made it very far after all; the trauma to her body had been too great.
Her body lay at rest beneath a thorny bush, where in her last hours she had dug a makeshift den. Operating on pure instinct, the black-and-white woman had been digging her own grave— a quiet, safe place to fade away into the afterlife. Hidden from those that might desecrate her earthen vessel. But now, as the leaves died and fell, her uniquely patterned coat was visible through the thorns. Any who might investigate would find her, weeks dead, her body partially decomposed.
