Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My!

Lynvarr sat down heavily as the lion took off. He was exhausted, not to mention very hungry. He moved in quickly to join Shilah but as the other male froze so did he. A tiger? Really? He supposed he shouldn't have been surprised. The kill was bound to attract any predators seeking an easy meal. Shilah backed off as the tiger moved in. Lynvarr puffed up and strode toward the tiger, snarling. He hoped their numbers might spook it off if it expected a fight. However, the tiger didn't seem to eager to move. It swiped out at Lynvarr and he ducked, just avoiding the claws. The tiger lunged and he ducked to the side but not quick enough as the animal's claws ripped into his shoulder.
