Zuma snickered in her hiding spot as the zookeeper spoke to the zebra-lionpanda. She talked to it as though the animal understood a word she was saying! Honestly! Animals were not that smart. However, the animal did seem to back down at the promise of meat. She glanced the other way to see some of the other zoo workers chasing the giant ratdog around in circles and she could not hold in a giggle. Zuma quickly clamped a hand over her mouth and looked back to the zookeeper and the zebra-lionpanda.
The animal was almost back to his pen. Zuma frowned at the zebra-lionpanda as though it could see her and her scowl would force it to be more interesting. Well, that was no fun. Quietly as she could, she lifted the latch on the pen nearest her and let the animal out without even so much as checking to see what it was. She moved cautiously into a new hiding spot not too far away but when the animal charged at her, she screamed shrilly...her eyes wide. Not the fun she was looking for!
