While reading, think about the sentence you feel doesn't belong.
| (1) While hunting, the lioness patiently stalked her prey using every
bit of available cover and then ran down the injured impala with a rapid rush.
(2) It is the lionesses of a pride who do most of the
hunting. (3) When hunting, the cats pay no attention to the wind's direction, which can
carry their scent to their prey. (4) They also tire after running only short distances; a
high proportion of their hunts thus end in failure. "African Lion" Species Data Sheet Page. Lincoln Park Zoo. 30 Sept. 1999 <http://www.lpzoo.com/animals/mammals/facts/lion.html> |
