His Family With Sharp Hoofs 
When they were hungry 
they would put their 
heads under the water and 
pull up the tender lily 
stems and roots, of which 
they were very fond. 
When the snow came they 
found a place with plenty 
of food, and made paths in 
the snow to get to it. There 
they stayed safely all win¬ 
ter with enough to eat. 
One day a pack of wolves 
tried to drive the young 
moose into the deep snow 
so they could kill him, but 
the father fought them off 
with his sharp hoofs.
