Answers
Explanation:
1. Bruno was a baby sloth bear who was the author's pet. One day the narrator was passing through the sugarcane fields near Mysore along with his friends. They came across some people driving away wild pigs from their fields by shooting at them then he saw a sloth bear and shooted on her and after the death of sloth bear he founds that cub was on her and took the cub with him.
2. Accidentally, Bruno drank the poison kept in the library to kill rats. He was paralysed and could not stand on its feet. As it reached the narrator’s wife, she called him and he realized what had happened. He took bruno to a veterinary doctor. then doctor injected some medicine and he recovered.
3.We all missed him greatly; but in a sense we were relieved. My wife was inconsolable. She wept and fretted. For the first few days she would not eat anything. Then she wrote a number of letters to the curator. How was Baba? Back came the replies, “Well, but fretting; he refuses food too.”
Although everyone missed Baba but they were relaxed too. The narrator’s wife was disturbed, she wept and worried about Baba’s well - being. Initially, she did not eat or drink. She wrote a letter to the zoo incharge to inquire about Baba. He replied that Baba was also undergoing a similar situation like her.
4.when the author's wife reached the zoo to meet Bruno ,Bruno howled with happiness ,she ran up to him, petted him through the bars ,and he stood on his head in delight.
5. · There is nothing more about brunos toys or games as i know bruno used a stick as a toy to play with the Alsatian dogs which live in the narrator's home.. Baba was a fully grown up bear then. He equalled more than two dogs in height. At times he was playful and in a mischievous mood.
