The Hungry Visitor
L. Han
Miguel herded the chickens into the coop and closed the gate as he did every night, only this time he noticed something odd. The chicken wire was bent in one place, and it looked like something had been digging beneath it. Instead of fixing the wire, Miguel decided to keep watch, so he hid in the shadow of the barn. There, he kept a careful lookout. Just as the sun was setting and the chickens had stopped their clucking for the night, he heard rustling. A moment later, a fox appeared and began to dig at the bent place in the fence. It wouldn’t be long before he got in and grabbed a chicken! Miguel was just thinking about how to get rid of the fox for good when the sound of the screen door slamming scared it off. He sighed and thought, I’ll get him next time.
Just then, Miguel’s mother walked up, and he told her what he’d seen. She smiled.
“Miguel,” she said, “as long as there have been chickens, foxes have tried to catch them. All we can do is keep our fences sturdy and shoo off the foxes when we see them. They have as much right to live as the chickens do.” She winked at her son and said, “That old sly fox will keep you guessing. I’ll guarantee it.”
