Every night, at midnight, when the big clock in the meeting room strikes twelve, all the doors to the cages and animal wards unlock. The animals quietly leave their enclosures and make their way down to the big tree. The owl flies to the top of the tree, picks a leaf and lets it drop. The animal at whose feet it lands tells the story for that night. The guinea pig, for example, tells the fathering a story of a capybara in the Amazon jungle; the grass snake tells how its great, great grandfather constrictor save seven animals from disaster in the African plains when none of the other animals could; the dog tells a story of a timber wolf.
These stories are full of the emotions, hopes and desires, heroism and success that animals 'share' with humans.
