*Must Oxen*

A group of twelve adult and five baby musk oxen come over the top of a hill. The adults graze on the vegetation that is lush now. The young calves chase each other around, playing. None wonder far from the adults.

*Musk Oxen*

One of the adults spots you and stamps a hoof to the ground in warning. The rest of the adults turn, and spot you as well. Instantly, the calves run behind the adults. The adult oxen create a sort of barrier by surrounding the young. They all watch you anxiously.


Aliyyah

figuring she wouldn't be able to get one of the calf’s she backs off slowly...


*Musk Oxen*

The adults watch you still. One suddenly charges from the group and makes a rush at you, trying to drive you away.


Aliyyah

she turns and runs off into the forest...


*Musk Oxen*

The musk oxen snorts and turns around, walking tensely back to the rest of its herd. They all watch you until you are out of their site. Slowly, they all relax and begin to graze. The young stay near the adults now, but begin playing again.
