That Sea is just a Gambler at Heart

Dómari waited patiently. He'd had plenty of practice waiting when he had to hunt on his own and rely on surprise to get himself a meal. It took some time but soon the muskrat emerged from the water and started wandering onto shore along its usual path. It paused as it got within a few feet of the snare. It's little head raised, sniffing the air. Dómari wished he could get behind it and scare it forward but he knew that would never work. He'd have to be patient. Ugh!

Minute by minute ticked by and the creature finally started moving toward the bait, deciding that the wolves had passed through. Besides, wolves weren't its main concern when it came to predators. The muskrat surveyed the surrounding area and sky again before darting forward toward the bait. At that moment it tripped the loop which tightened around it. "Now!" Shouted Dómari, resisting the urge to spring forward himself. He wanted to pup to get the experience.
