　Once upon a time, a hunter was walking in the mountain with his son.

　Then a tiger suddenly appeared from behind a rock and it held him in its mouth trying to take him away.

　Being surprised, his son raised his gun and aimed at the tiger running away.

　The old guy saw his son trying to trigger and loudly said,

“Hey son! Its legs! Legs! Aim at its legs because if you wound the tiger’s body, the selling price of its skin will be lower.”

The end.
