look a kitty cat - lion

Hanging out by the water was really great for finding predators to fight.  This time it was a young male lion that had foolishly come to the water that Kotori claimed as his resting spot for the day.  Kotori and the lion faced off and both charged at the same time.  The lion was faster and with more attitude than the bear’s he faced recently.

Kotori swerved around the lion, attempting to bite the lion’s back leg but it swung around faster than Kotori imagined it could.  They were face to face and the lion moved in to try and bite Kotori’s neck, a killing blow.  Kotori shifted his weight, stepped sideways just enough for the lion’s blow to miss, returned it with a bite to the side of the lion’s face, then ran a wide circuit around it again.

Bear’s he fought ruthlessly and up close most of the time but this lion was faster than a bear so Kotori imagined it had to be given a bit more respect.
