Wild Savannah - The Beginning
Long before man hunted beast. The plains of Wild Savannah were peaceful. Everybody lived in harmony, well maybe not everybody, the preditors still killed the prey, but hey that was the circle of life, wasn't it? Not a gunshot could be heard for miles across these peaceful plains. Infact most of these animals didn't even know what a gun was, never mind knowing how dangerous it was. The animals lived in quiet harmony. The nearby tribes which shared the land with the animals stayed well clear of them, until one night, it all changed for good.
An exhiled man from a nearby tribe was hungry, ever so hungry. He thought he was going to die from hunger, and the only way he'd ever get back into his tribe was to do something manly. Hunting was considered manly, but in the mans 20 years of life, he'd never had a successful hunt, so he had been exhiled. Then he spotted it, the thing that would squash his dying hunger and the thing that would grant him acceptance back into his tribe. An african wild dog, the lead of the pack, was out on a hunting trip, all eleven of her pups in toll. The man smirked, reaching for his dagger he leapt killing the lead female african wild dog and a few of her pups, he dragged 9 out of the 11 pups, and the mother back to his tribe, leaving the other 2 pups to the savannah.
The man's tribe had not eaten in days, so when the man arrived back with this strange meat, he was treated like a hero. Nobody knew what they were eating because they were that hungry. Eventually after everybody had ate their full. They asked the man. "What is this strange yet wonderful meat, and where in all the Wild Savannah plains did you get them?" They all questioned, what the man answered them shocked some, angered more and made some feel physically sick. "Its off a african wild dog" He had said. Reaching for their spears the mean prepared to kill him, but the villiage leader stepped in. "No leave him be, he has found a new delecacy, which means we shall never go hungry once more." The villiage leader had proclaimed, stamping his stick down on the ground. Then a younger member of the tribe spoke. "But master, what if we eat too much of them, and they no longer survive on these plains. What if we eat them to extinction?" He had said. The villiage leader shot a look at the younger member who had spoken and nodded. "True, but we shall still eat them, only we shall limit how much we eat, only eat this newfound delecacy on special occasions" Everybody in the tribe agreed and thats how eating the african wild dog came to be.
Eventually the tribe was taken over, the new leader banished the rule about only eating the African Wild Dog on special occaisons and soon, most families were eating the meal every night. Eventually with no fewer that 300 african wild dogs, left on the Wild Savannah plains the african tribe eventually stopped eating the african wild dog as they could no longer do so. The african wild dogs all ran away, to start new lives in other plains, and that phase was over.
Now a few years later, that tribe has all but died out, the african wild dogs are steadily returning to the land they once knew, but one things for sure. If it wasn't for that stupid african tribesman, there would be a lot more African Wild Dogs on the Wild Savannah plains, and nobody would be in this big giant mess.
