In a forest, there lived a happy tiger family lived. The tiger family had three cute little cubs.
It was getting darker. The tiger family was resting in their den. They were tired after hunting animals.
“I heard a sound from a distance. Did you hear that?” asked the tiger to his wife.
“No, I didn’t hear any sound. It must be in your dream,” the tigress mocked the tiger.
But the tiger was sure that he heard a strange sound. It was like the beat of drums. He immediately climbed upon a tree to have a look around. The scene he saw shocked him.
“Hey, there, some men are coming on our way. They are hunters. Let’s get out of this place and hide somewhere in the mountain,” the tiger called the tigress.
Tiger and the Tigress, picking their cubs, ran to the nearby mountain. From their hiding place, they could see what was happening around them. They saw the hunters combing their den because they were following tiger paw marks on the way.
“I am sorry for mocking you. You are right! Now I know, why a tiger should be alert,” the tigress said to the tiger. The tiger smiled and said.
“Yes, only because of the alertness we are still alive.”
After spending a few hours there, the hunters left the place. Tiger and tigress came back to their place with their cubs. The Cubs started playing again.
