As Peregrine split the party, Dante veered left, joining the flanking crew. While his size and speed might have been better served in staying with Peregrine's group and intimidating the creatures to a run, his size was also well served to grasping the deer and pulling it down to prepare it for the kill. With the deer being led straight to them speed shouldn't be too much of an issue so long as he was quick enough to avoid injury in the process. He had the experience and skill to know where he needed to be, though.

Keeping silent, he came up on the left side and stood stock still, waiting patiently for the chase to begin and the deer to be in position. As he did so he scanned the herd, locating a couple who might provide good targets. He wasn't sure which would be on his side when the charge began but chances were good that at least one would be.

The hunt began suddenly, the deer taking flight and careening towards the rift between the two side groups. Dante waited, not wanting to move too soon and force the herd to the side. When he deemed the time right he sprang into action, charging at the deer and selecting a doe whom he had kept an eye on. Avoiding the hooves flying on either side, he leapt, missing her throat. Not wanting to miss this opportunity, he focused on the motions of her front legs and instead latched his jaws onto one of those. As soon as his teeth met flesh he dug his paws in, hoping his weight would be sufficient to at least stall the fleeing deer if not completely take her to the ground. Hopefully it would provide opportunity for another packmate or two to intercede and help with the takedown.

Kept it very vague! If him catching one right off is too much a powerplay lemme know and I can edit
