   Crisp Holes tried to merge with other Breakfast cereals.

   He formed a partnership with Alpha Bits. They came out with A Holes Cereal….and said, “No!”

   Then they tried B Holes Cereal….and still….. “No!”

   Then C holes cereal…..and again…a very big, “No!”

   I know, let me try grabbing a letter at random, and we’ll use that…… “OK!”

   “P” – so it’s P Holes ……..

   err…let’s just forget it…..

   The giant anaconda has been silenced! No longer will she raid the panther clan, or prey on the weak. The panther fought bravely, but in the end, the humans helped him.

   They opened up this part of the jungle, exposing the serpent.

   Without the cover of darkness, and the invisibility offered by the angelim vermelho tree, and the lightly packed Epiphytes the giant reptile has grown weak. No longer able to sustain that massive frame, as all prey have become aware of her presence. They have avoided her black death long enough for the serpent herself to succumb to hunger and weakness. The anaconda has shrunk back into the jungle, passing the Split leaf philodendrons , ( Monstera leaves ); past the Monkey Brush Vines , ( Combretum rotundifolium ),the Heliconia , Heliconia latispatha and the ever beautiful Giant Water Lily , Victoria Amazonica and to the great Amazon herself. The snake knowing, she has been bested, departs this corner of the jungle surrendering it to the new master of the day, the great black panther.

   The only reminder of the serpents passing is the shed skin left hanging in the tree, the light shimmering off iridescent scales, it appears as a beacon to remind all who live in the Panther’s Jungle, that he is the Apex Predator, but he is a benevolent one. He only takes what he needs, and he instills this on his clan. The little ones have taken this to heart, and revere him, and protect him, as he takes a well-deserved sleep, exhausted from the battles of the day.

   He sleeps, thinking that later he will travel back to his other tree, the Euterpe Precatoria and take in some sweet berries. Our story is ended for now…but the panther will have many more adventures.

   NOTE: all flora in these tales are real and indigenous to the Amazon Rain Forest.

   So, why were you bringing flowers to Miss Ellie?

   You CAD!

   Babysitting, sure, but you don’t bring flowers to the babysitter…unless you’re sliding with gutter balls.

   Well, like I said yesterday, glad it isn’t a 1970’s disco ball, and Puck is the “Y” in YMCA!

   The Panther looks to protect the brood. He raises mighty forepaws in the air, and makes menacing hisses at the giant anaconda. For a millennium or more, these two ancient rivals, the mighty panther of the jungle and the reptilian anaconda have fought for supremacy.

   Today, the ancient reptile has the high ground. He sits in the giant angelim vermelho tree, seemingly secure in his fortress. But our panther knows that the Epiphytes grow off the ground, their roots claiming sanctuary on the mighty angelim vermelho tree, so they offer little support for the giant snake. If the panther were to deftly move to the side and pounce, he could unbalance the snake, and the tenuous grip of the Epiphytes would free, the snake would falter, and he could win this day.

   If not for himself, for his kin and brood, who stand with him, but surrender to his position, as the leader of their pack.

   Sallah was one of my favorite characters in Indiana Jones movies.

   John Rhys-Davies carried that same humor into the Lord of the Rings Movies as Gimli

   “Just don’t tell the elf!”

   The Panther is momentraily frozen.

   Atop the giant angelim vermelho tree, a hanging, dark form, the largest snake our panther had ever seen.

   An anaconda of enormous proportion, large enough to perhaps; to even overtake this lithe panther. The silent monster is staring down at him, tongue flickering from side-to-side and up and down, sensing their presence. Cold yellow eyes, with sickle-like slits, staring at them.

   The younger kits do not see or understand the danger they are in. They want to play or hunt the enormous creature. Only the mighty panther understands the full measure of danger. His tail is the only give-away to the tension that he feels.

   What will come next?

    The mighty panther glides through the rainforest, deeper than he has ever gone before. He sees a clearing up ahead.

    What has this new hunting trip brought him?

    He breaks through the Split leaf philodendrons, also known as Monstera leaves ; he glides past the Monkey Brush Vines, (Combretum rotundifolium) and into a clearing by the great Amazon.

    _"Oh, if I was only home in my Euterpe precatoria tree,"_ thought the lithe panther.

    The Euterpe Precatoria is common in the Amazon, but the mighty panther lives in the largest and strongest of them; the tree, a relative of the açaí palm Euterpe oleracea), has sweet berries that the panther loves to nibble on.

    For some reason, the humans have broached his domain, connecting him to their world. What will he find in this new reality?

    The others beckon him to a giant angelim vermelho tree, which is in the bright sun, and in a canopy of lush cushion-like ferns, known as Epiphytes. Epiphytes can grow off the ground, their roots claiming sanctuary on the mighty angelim vermelho tree.

    “This is nice”_; thought the mighty panther. "*Perhaps* I should accept this as part of my home territory.
