Testosterone seeping, volatile, from the provider of seed. Capable of higher thinking but regulated by present urgencies. He builds a nest and gathers a store, thinking ahead to the terrible winter. In action he demonstrates for those who pay attention but works on and builds what must be built. There is no subjugation, nor tiring effort to bend the will of others. He simply prepares for inevitability: the mate, the seasons, and the safety of a den. In action he is more than a machine, more than sounds. Success is a calculated effort by the able body and mind. It is in his nature to succeed until death.
He ventures out into the sun in search of a single scent. The calls of others echo in the wind. They will learn for themselves, or perish.
