Last year I went to Nepal for three months to work in a hospital.When the hospital let me have a
few days holiday,I decided to go into the jungle and I asked a Nepalese guide,Kamal Rai,to go with me. In
the jungle there was a lot of wildlife,but we were trying to find big cats,especially tigers. We climbed
onto the elephants backs to get better view, but it is unusual to find tigers in the afternoon because they
sleep in the heat of the day. Then, in the distance, we saw a tiger, and Kamal told me to be very quite.
We creot nearer and found a dead deer, still bleeding. This was the tiger’s lunch!Suddenly, I started to
feel very frightened.

We heard the tiger a second before we saw it. It jumped out like a flash of lightning, five hundred kilos
plus and four meters long. I looked into its eyes and face, and saw right dowm the animal’s throat. It
grabbed Kamal’s leg between its teeth, but I managed to pull Kamal away. One of our elephants ran at
the tiger and made it go back to the grass, so we quickly escapes to let the tiger eat its lunch. That right
it was impossible to sleep!
