"Rrrroooaaarr! I'm hungry, Mom!" exclaimed the snow leopard's littlest cub. "When are we going to get some meat?"
"I'm going right now. Just hang on!" said the mother as she walked out of the cave.
She went up the side of the mountain, certain that she wouldn't be seen because of the way her beautiful woolen coat blended in with the snow. As she came near to the next cave, she carefully looked inside. It was then that she came face to face with...


an Eskimo. Scared, she roared at the Eskimo, but he did nothing. The man tried to calm her down, and she ran off. When the mother snow leopard got home, the cub was fast asleep. The next day, when the mother went hunting, she got a mink. As the cub ate he asked his mom, "What is hunting like?"
"Hard, very hard," she said. "Scary sometimes. Now go take a nap." After many hours of napping, the mother snow leopard took her cub for a walk. They had a good conversation about hunting. On their way back a mink walked in front of them. The mother told her cub, "Go get the mink."
So he charged and got the mink. When they got home there was that Eskimo. Remembering what had happened in the past, he walked away after taking some photos. The mother said to her cub, "Follow him."
"Why, mom? It's dangerous," replied the cub.
"You're right, go inside," commanded the mother snow leopard. When they got in the cave, Eskimos surrounded them. The Eskimos captured them and held them hostage. There they lived a good life together.
The End

a pack of bears. The momma snow leopard knew she couldn't take them all so she ran, not noticing where she was going. The snow leopard heard something.
"Who's there?" she yelled. No answer. She began to get worried. She started to back up slowly and felt that she stepped on something. The momma snow leopard heard a Rrrrroooooaarrrr. She turned around quickly and was relieved to find out she ran straight into her own cave. She quickly found out the noises were her baby cub, and she had stepped on his foot.
"I love you," cried the momma snow leopard. All the baby cub said was, "I love you, too."

a huge polar bear. The polar bear was very hungry. The mother jumped away, and the polar bear got really mad and started to growl! The mother was terrified because the polar bear attacked her. They rolled down the mountain onto the ice. The cub yelled, "Mom, are you ok?!" She didn't answer.
The cub ran onto the ice and bit the polar bear. The polar bear threw the cub onto ice, and the cub slid into the snow. The mom ran and got the cub and put him into a cave so it could be safe. The mom attacked the polar bear and was biting the polar bear's neck. The polar bear fell down and died.
"Mom!" cried the cub. "Are you ok?" said the cub.
"Yes, I'm ok. My back hurts though. Here is some meat for you."
"Where?" asked the cub. "Oh, found it. I love you, mommy," said the cub.
"I love you, too, honey," said mother.
