Johny and A Bird
Once upon a time, there was a man, his name was Johny(1). He lived with his dog in a top of mountain, his name was Buddy(2-5). He worked as a hunter(6). He hunted deer, rabbits, birds, boars and even bears(7). He have been used to face a ‘monster’ or a very wild animal such as bear, wolf, etc(8-9).
One day, he went to the forest along with his dog, Buddy(10-12). He wanted to hunt a boar to sell in the city(13-15). Boar meat was very expensive; it could pay all his needs for the next five days(16-17). In the forest, he found an injured bird(18-21). The injure was really bad, seemed like a hunter had shot it exactly in one of his wing(22-23). Now, it could not fly anymore(24). Suddenly, he heard a sound of little birds from above his head(25-26). He went up to the tree and found a bird nest stayed by five little birds(27-29). The injured bird seemed like their mother(30). Looking at the little birds, he felt guilty, because he often does the same thing; shooting birds for his own needs(31-32). Without wasting any time, he took his water bottle and cleaned the bird’s injure(33-34). Then he tore his cloth a bit and twisted it on the bird’s wing(35-36). Finally, he put the bird on the nest and the little birds remain silent, as if they had felt safe(37-38).
From that time, he decided to not to hunt animals anymore(39). Because Johny had been aware that animals also have their own family and needs. Human should not greedily hunt them for their own sake(40).
