Braima Moiwai, The Lion Story, page 3 <br /> There once lived an old lion long ago when the land was a single <br /> piece with one ocean, one mountain, and all the animals spoke one <br /> language. Old Lion was the strongest animal on land and feared by rMhy. <br /> He ruled the kingdom where the rainforest converged with the Guinea <br /> savannah in West Africa. No humans dared to dwell or hunt ire this vast <br /> piece of land. Old Lion was the only hunter, the only carnivore living among <br /> vegetarians. Whenever he felt hungry, he hunted the other animals. They <br /> lived in constant fear of him, especially when they went down to the one <br /> river that ran through the land, their only drinking place. <br /> When Old Lion roared, his fierce voice traveled for miles, and all who <br /> heard him ran into holes, climbed up trees for cover, or scattered in the <br /> opposite direction. They crouched, gasping for air, hoping they weren't next <br /> on his prey list. <br />
