Don’t worry too much. You saw how strong the one baby
was when he hatched. If you look, you can see that over there is
a small creek with lots of small fish in it for the little ones to eat.
We will put the eggs in spots where, when the babies hatch, they
will be able to forage on their own for food. This island has a lot
of mice, rats, and snakes for the baby Gigantoraptors to eat.”
“I don’t want my project to fail,” Viviana said in a concerned
voice.
“The main thing is there are no humans on this island, and we
will see that the database has the correct information from now
on, to insure that humans know to stay away from this island,”
Bardala told her as she gave her a hug.
The second landing went smoothly, with the only problem
being two more eggs had hatched on Mahucutah’s boat while
they were headed to their third landing spot.
“Mahucutah needs some fish.
I can see two little
Gigantoraptors running around loose on deck,” Ronú said, while
he petted Brilloso on the head.
“Bardala, let Mahucutah pull up next to us and I will send
some fish to quiet those two little raptors down,” said Tital.
Bardala steered their boat next to Mahucutah’s and Tital
levitated three large fish over to his boat.
“Send me along to Mahucutah’s boat. I can help him until we
unload all the eggs,” Ronú asked.
“Okay, but be careful. Those little raptors can hurt you it they
bite you,” Tital said, and then levitated Ronú over to the other
boat. They all watched while Ronú roped the two loose
Gigantoraptors that were running around, and put them in
wooden cages. He then fed them chunks of fish. He looked over
and waved his arms, signaling that everything was now alright.
