Answers
Answer:
Grandpa Fights an Ostrich by Ruskin Bond is a short tale about his granddad's battle with an Ostrich in East Africa. Prior to joining the Indian Railways, he had worked for East African Railway. It was some time in the past. Ruskin's granddad was living in a community. Be that as it may, his work was identified with laying railroad tracks and it was twelve miles from the town. He would proceed to return each day on a horseback.
One day his horse meets with a slight mishap. In this way, he chooses to proceed with his adventure by walking. He knows the short course through mountains which can spare him around six miles. All things considered, this alternate route goes through an ostrich homestead or camp. It is the rearing season. He is genuinely acquainted with the methods for ostriches; particularly male winged creatures are super forceful and are constantly prepared to assault. Be that as it may, he has a pooch with him who can drive off any flying creature that may attempt to assault him. Before long, the pooch begins pursuing a bunny. Grandpa yells out to get back to the canine. In the interim one male ostrich being exasperated by the pooch's yapping and man's yell comes racing to him.
Grandpa – alone and with no weapon – feels startled and starts running towards the fence. He finds a brush of thistle hedges and afterward starts going around it. He is burnt out on running and is going to fall of weariness. He stops and when the ostrich charges at him in full speed, he bounces to the other side, yet as opposed to landing safe on the ground he winds up sticking to its fold of the wing.
The ostrich withdraws alarmingly. It loses its assaulting position and goes all around the hedge to discard him from its body. Grandpa dares not leaving it, yet because of depletion he loses the grasp and falls on the ground. Before long, the ostrich happens upon him with one leg prepared to squeeze him. Be that as it may, soon his pooch comes running and panics the ostrich. At last, he is spared by the pooch.
