Whisper of the Wild
Peter’s video went viral within hours, sparking online debates: “Bear adopts mutants?” “Real-life jungle book?” Hana shut her phone off after the fifth call from media outlets. She wasn’t interested in headlines. Her only concern was the fragile lives sleeping behind glass and the silent guardian watching from just beyond.
In a quiet moment, she sat near the enclosure. The bear looked up, their eyes meeting. Hana didn’t speak, but something unspoken passed between them. Respect. Trust. Connection. “You did well,” Hana whispered. The bear blinked slowly, then rested her head on her paws. In that silence, no words were needed.
