The hunter’s heart began to beat faster. He slowly lifted the rifle, aimed, and held his breath.

Bang.

The shot echoed loudly, but the bullet missed. The frightened animals instantly vanished between the trees.

Desperate and exhausted, the man wandered through the forest for several more hours, but without success. His legs ached, his stomach growled, and his head began to spin from fatigue.He decided to take a break, sat down beside a huge oak tree, leaned the rifle against the trunk… and didn’t even notice when his eyes closed and he fell asleep.
