NAME:

the butterfly hunter

The Zag zebra loves nature. She thinks exploring it outdoors is super fun.
“I want to hunt butterflies in the firefly meadow,” he thinks. Zag grabs his butterfly gear and pedals out into the sunny meadow.
A breeze stirs the tall grass. “It looks like water. I love it,” she thinks.
Zag wanders around hunting butterflies.
– There's one! - She mutters. With a quick movement of the net, she catches a beautiful yellow, orange and black butterfly.

“I'll put it in my collector's jar,” she says. “That way I can really look at her,” he concludes.
The butterfly thrashes around, flapping its wings inside the pot, then settles down.
Zag studies the beautiful butterfly for a long time. Then walk further into the jungle.
– Oh, look at that one over there! – she exclaims.
Vush! She makes the network.
- I got! She screams.
Quickly, a butterfly in black and white colors is a second glass.
– What a beauty! – she says to herself. I can't wait to show them to Zig and Mom and Dad!
Just then, the two butterflies flutter in the glass.
– Hmm… – she says – they don't look very happy in there. I don't think I would either. Should I let them go? – she decides.
She opens the two jars and the butterflies fly away.
– Bye for now! She says.
