Rabbit goes duck hunting

[Honovi Mahala]

One day, a long time ago, near a river, a rabbit said he could do everything that everybody else does.

Otter said he would do something, and Rabbit could do it after him.


Otter said he would go chase after a duck because he wanted to eat it. Otter swam under the water to the duck.He caught a duck's leg and yanked it down under the water.He swam back to his hiding place to eat the duck.

Then Rabbit went to go try it. He made a noose out of a baby tree. He swam out there and came up to breathe. Then he went back under water.

He tried to get the duck, but it didn't work out. The duck took him.

Rabbit threw the noose over the duck's head. The duck went flying out of the water into the sky. Rabbit got tired of holding on. Then he let go.

He was going down and he landed in a stump.



He was stuck in that stump and couldn't get out. Then rabbit ate his fur because he was hungry.

He finally got out. There were some kids playing and they heard a rabbit singing.

The kids went to tell their father. Their father helped the rabbit get out. He cut a little door.

When he opened the door, the rabbit flew by. To this day, when Rabbit is hungry, he eats his own fur.
