Chương 101: Bigger Fish

Exactly five minutes later, the Collector happened upon the specimen, though it did not notice the Collector.

The predator specimen was, as the Collector had estimated, a sizable one. A feline built for power, wrapped up in thick, shaggy brown fur with a dense mane resistant to teeth and claws.

Even underneath the density of fur, the Collector could perceive highly built musculature specialized for ambush attacks.

The specimen moved slowly, slinking down low into the snow while its saber-toothed jaws dragged a frostboar carcass. It must have weighed nearly five hundred kilograms, most of that being hardened muscle mass.

An interesting detail to note that the specimen was still ambulating while masking its presence despite having succeeded in a hunt. Such behavior indicated the presence of further predators in the area.

Good.

The Collector would make short work of this specimen by itself.
