Hunting the Wooly Mammoth
by Wesley
I am a prehistoric hunter. Our clan needs food. We need to go on a hunt. There are wooly mammoths nearby. They are dangerous animals. We need to be careful. The wooly mammoths are down by the creek taking a bath. This is my first hunt. I have to be quiet so they can't hear me. I am really excited to see the wooly mammoth. They are big animals. I am really scared because of the big, sharp tusks that can kill you. I am afraid of the sharp tusks because they killed my dad's friend. My partners and I chase the mammoths into a covered hole. Some of my partners throw spears down at the mammoths and kill them. We begin to skin the mammoths. One of my partners will go get our friends and family. Then we will set up camp near the hole. We will set up our tents by using the mammoth skin and the mammoth bones to hold up the tents. After we eat the wooly mammoth, we take the ribs of the animal and made a house out of them. We take the fur off the animal and make a roof. This is our new home now. The wooly mammoth provides us with food, clothes and a home.
