Lone Star Mountain Sometimes you gotta bleed to know

His search for food took far longer than he would have liked, but he refused to return with nothing. Even with his persistence, all he managed to find was a mostly deserted rabbit warren. The two hares that remained were quickly dispatched and they both hung between his jaws as he returned to the family. 

It's not much, but here kids. He dropped the rabbits and waited for the children to begin eating. Assuming they did, he wandered back to the opening of the cave and tiredly dropped to the ground in front of it, blocking the entrance so that the family could rest easily without fear of intruders. He would stay there for the remainder of the night, keeping watch until morning when they would need to set out again.
