Enclosures of various shapes and sizes could be found within, but instead of fences, the only thing preventing the creatures inside from going survival of the fittest on each other were the bonds they had formed with Cairn, his family, and one another.

"Wait a moment," said Cairn, having the group stop shortly after entering the reserve so he could pull out a thin silver whistle.
