Initially, Ah Ow had only wanted to tease the seal. However, the seal had not reciprocated Ah Ow's intention to play along. In fact, it had almost bit Ah Ow, and that angered her.
The seal, too, was angry. It opened its mouth and let out a call.
Ah Ow looked to the sky and howled even louder. Ah-wooooo!
At that moment, all the Nganasan wore a look of shock. Li Du did not require Big Ivan's translation to know what they were talking about. All along, the men had thought that Ah Ow was a dog.
The seal used its pectoral fins to support its round body in moving to try to bite Ah Ow. Ah Ow's size was smaller than the seal's and hence, the seal was unafraid of the wolf. In turn, it now wanted to take the chance to have a meal.
However, Ah Ow never did fight battles alone. She easily managed to avoid the seal's attack. Then, it turned around and called out. Ah Meow, Ali and the rest immediately rushed forth.
