Mellana trotted though the tall grass, she had scented a rabbit earlier and was now trailing it, she had passed two warrens already but the rabbits had all seen her first and hidden in their burrows. Being an older wolf she had less patience for chasing down deer, rabbits took less energy and were easily outrun by her long powerful legs. Sighing she sniffed the air again, the rabbit was close by probably eating or sitting near its burrow entrance, she hoped it was eating if it was aby the burrow she had no chance of catching it.
