Shu’s successful hunt!
Timofey isn’t the only one famous for hunting quail. Today Shu figured out a new toy and fished prey out of it. At first I thought it was just a new toy. Shu was fussing around it, and then I saw feathers appear from the hollow cylinder, and then the whole appetizing little body. And this was already the second quail for lunch!

Hooray, my quail!!!
I’ll carry her a little higher, or else Namika’s mom is scratching at my door. What if she takes her away?
Delicious!
l83, Did Namika really scratch? 😁
Shu is an agile and skilled hunter! Bravo!
l83, It won’t take it away. Namika doesn’t eat quails! No matter how much the keepers try to persuade her...😄
Анна, At that moment, she was lying beside the little door between the enclosures. And she had been scratching vigorously a little earlier, before feeding time. Besides, Shunya came at his mother’s call and also settled down beside the little door.
