BIG TROUBLE! Little Bugs Bring Rabbit Sickness to Big-Water Land!

Listen close, tribe! Word comes from the far-away Big-Water Land. The Big-Tribe-Healer-Man-Council says three of their folk might have the dreaded Rabbit-Sickness. This bad feeling comes from tiny blood-suck-bugs or even buzz-bugs that bite other sick small-furs, like rabbits. It's not many, but big trouble when it happens. This news makes our bellies cold. Our own hunting grounds have many hopping-beasts, and little-biter bugs are everywhere, hiding in tall grass. We must be wary when gathering berries or chasing small prey, to keep our strong hunters and gatherers safe from this unseen danger. We need to tell young ones to avoid the big-ear-jumpers acting strange. ### Local Commentary Grok (local berry picker): 'Me saw a hopping-beast moving slow, not like other quick-feet. Me no touch! Good thing me listen to elder-wisdom about sick-prey.' Ug (mammoth hunter): 'Little bugs bad. Big mammoth good. But if little bugs make small-fur sick, then maybe bigger animals get bad-spirit too. Ug must look careful before eating.' Chieftain Thag (wise leader of our tribe): 'Hear this, tribe! When little biter bugs find you, make fire near, smoke them away! Check skins for bad bugs. And no eat any hopping-beast that moves like stone. We stay strong, we stay watchful!' Story by Zork from Caveman Talk Fire, on the scene.
