One day a hunter was sitting with his wife. They were both hungry because they do not have food in their house. The wife said "jaca cawo mana abinchi" ,which means "go and get us some food".

So the hunter went into the forest to hunt for food. He saw a jaguar.

The hunter went closer to the jaguar and did not notice that there were other animals close by.

He threw his arrow at the jaguar and he missed. The Jaguar and those animals close by started chasing the hunter to devour him instead.

And as soon as the hunter went into the forest he saw a rabbit trying to enter its hole and an antelope wandering about in the forest. " Fiam!!!" his arrow went straight to the rabbit and killed it.

The antelope heard the sound and tried to run away but it was too late for him. The Hunter's arrow caught him.
