Lilo, that just reminded me of this very sick game my husband used to play with my youngest daughter. She had this collection of plastic animals that she loved to play with. My husband made up a game called "The Cheetah and The Sick Giraffe". The giraffe would be grazing peacefully while the cheetah looked on. Then the giraffe would cough, indicating it was sick and weak, at which time the cheetah would move in for the kill. Although she initially objected to this game, she eventually looked forward to the cheetah attack.

The best part was our visit to the Toronto Zoo. They have a wounded cheetah on display. My daughter demanded to know who was going to eat it.
