The Lion ran towards the Wolf. The lion is much stronger than the wolf. The Wolf had to drop the Sheep and run far away. The Lion took the Sheep and started walking towards the forest.

TranslateEle disse: “ROOOOAAAAR! É a sua propriedade? Comprou isso? O fazendeiro presenteou você? Ou roubou o cordeiro? Diga-me!”
