Diminutive he might be but his stoicism is that of a giant. Examine his countenance and you will find the steel and determination of countless generations before him.
His is a volatile world. At his size, predators still threaten on a regular basis. Competition is rife for food. And then there is the stress brought by the clumsy trampling of ignorant humans.
As he stares back through the lens at men, I understand that he is more curious than cautious. He knows, from me, he has nothing to fear.
