There once was a quite sizable bear -- yet more imposing for its shaggy hair. "If I took a shave, I'd better fit my cave, but hunters would laugh, not beware."
Bear Bouffant [Limerick]

in a tree hollow,
snails multiply as far

Do you feel unease, walking in tall grass? Visceral tension? A primal impression from a time when a wounded beast [on its belly, & with labored breath] retained enough energy for one last lurch to impale its hunter? A raspy groan or bloody burble, and the jerky wave of the grass might be all the warning one got before The End.
