Weasel War Dances, Weasel Slow Dances

about

“G felt frustrated because for a month and a half no animals came to his traps. ‘Not even a weasel,’ he said. Yet often he saw tracks circling them.” – Clyde Kluckhohn, Personality in Nature, Society, and Culture

“The scritch of green frogs, the sudden leaping of a fish, the squeal of a buck hare up in the orchard before the ravening weasel’s leap.” – Davis Grubb, The Night of the Hunter

“As game is to the pointer, so had my quarry been to the distended nostrils of my intellectual being. As a weasel pursues the hapless rabbit, so had I followed fast and ever faster the elusive object of my chase.” – J. F. Byrne, Silent Years: An Autobiography with Memoirs of James Joyce and Our Ireland
