Victim Hunter

A hunter on hunting field Hunting dengerous animals. Trapping their ways And hid behind a baobab tree. A Clever leopard found out the traps And hid on the tree to ambush the hunter. A nyala cuptured by one trap Screaming for help The hunter was  happy, So happy to eat the bush meat soon. The leopard was  happy to see, The owner of the traps soon. Hunter rushed to terminate the nyala, Leopard jumped on his neck And killed him. Wild dogs and hyenas reached the place.  Leopard escaped with the body  Of the hunter on the tree.  Other hunters saw the action  And rushed to help the victim But he kicked the bucket. The leopard could not come down , Wild dogs and hyenas celebrated the meat. Hunters up in arms The body of their friend hanging on the tree. Leopard terrified to see more enemies No way to escape, Seeing it death soon. Hunters shot the leopard,  Dead and fallen. They carried the  body of their friend home for burial, leopard for braia. The skin of the leopard was kept For remembrance The story about a hunter who was ambushed by a leopard flew all over. By Alfonso Warally Ngengethe Mussabwa Chris February 17/2023
