Finding your Howl

In Johnathon Flaum's "Finding your howl"  there are two short stories presented. one is about a wolf named Mumon and about how he has to find out to adapt to life in the wild and learn how to find his howl and the sacrifices he has to make to get it. the second is a story that a classmates of the authors wrote in the 5th grade it is about how a tiger attempts to escape from a zoo but no matter how hard the tiger tries all that happens his he ends up in a new zoo in a bigger cage. the first story started out that you found out the red wolf had been an endangered species and then some off spring of ones held in captivity had been released in to the wild they did find but one thing that they were missing is they did not know how to howl. The main character of the story Mumon was determined to find his howl. He kills a deer in order to see if hunting will help him find it but it doesn't. then a bird tells him that his howl will come to him when he most needs it. Mumon for some time still goes with out howling until he was confronted from hunters and instead of running he sacrifices him self and he figures out as he is sacrificing him self that he can howl.
