What You In For?
One hot, humid summer day, a hog and a chipmunk sat inside a federal prison cell.
The hog looked at Calvin, sweat running down his humongous back and oversized butt.
He could not not inquire.
"So, Chipmunk... what you in for?"
Calvin looked at him.
"It's complicated."
"Try me."
Calvin thought for a moment.
"Well... it started last summer."
And what a summer it had been.

There Was Always Tomorrow
One morning, Calvin woke to another beautiful day.
The butterflies were feeding from the buttercups. The river moved gently along its banks, and the forest was green and full of life.
Food was plentiful. The days were warm. Calvin didn't have a care in the world.
And why should he?
There was always tomorrow.

A Perfect Day for a Kite 🪁🥜

Just Enough Wind 🪁 🍃
The summer days rolled on.
Calvin spent his mornings gathering whatever he wanted and his afternoons doing whatever he pleased.
One afternoon, the wind picked up just enough to fly his favorite kite.
High above the trees, Legit spotted something unusual floating through the sky.
A peanut.
At least, that's what it looked like from up there.
Legit circled around for a closer look.
Calvin looked up and waved.
The wind carried Legit away.
Calvin loved the wind.
He had no reason not to.

The Last Shovelful 🥜
Months later, winter came hard.
It was the kind of winter that buried food beneath snow and frozen ground. For the animals living outside, finding something to eat wasn't simply difficult.
It was survival.
Legit, an African grey parrot, had been searching most of the day. A nut tree. An acorn. Anything.
Then, from a distance, he noticed movement.
A chipmunk.
A forklift.
And one last shovelful of peanuts.
Calvin was so busy finishing what he'd started that he almost didn't notice the large gray bird watching from a distance.
Almost.
His instincts caught it before his brain did.
Predator.
Calvin jumped, cracked his head against the forklift, and his hard hat tumbled into the snow.
He didn't stop for it.
Calvin got the hell out of there.

Legit Saw Everything 👀🦜

The Evidence 🥜 🔍
By the time Legit reached the road, Calvin was gone.
So was the forklift.
Broken peanut shells littered the snow. Tiny chipmunk tracks crossed the road beside the deeper tracks of a forklift.
And despite the bitter cold, the smell of diesel still hung in the air.
Then something near the edge of the road caught Legit's eye.
Yellow.
Half-buried in the snow was a hard hat.
Legit hopped closer and turned it over.
Written across the front in black marker was one name:
CALVIN.
Legit looked down the road in the direction the forklift had gone.
He wasn't looking for Calvin.
He was looking for the peanuts.
