He scooped them roughly from their cradle in the dirt, nosing them against the cold ground. Would be good nutrition for the cubs. While Redtail's puppies were hardly infants any longer, they were still too small for large game, and a bundle of mouse nestlings could serve as a good learning opportunity for the Rise's next hunt leaders and warriors. Should we bring them back to the den?
