Like A River I Run

Sunrise brought the land to life, the light spilling over sparkling rock and the massive caribou herd which grazed on the summer grasses of the wash. Birna crouched low in a shallow part of the river basin, peeking over the edge to watch the herd as she scanned the animals for signs of weakness, eventually fixing on some of the young, season-old calves. She was adapted to hunting rocky and dangerous terrain but her journey had brought her over open land. She was hungry. She'd have to adapt. But as a sprinter she had to figure a good way to get at a caribou calf for she certainly couldn't outrun them. What to do?
