"When a lion stalks a herd, he sneaks in close, lies down, and surveys them to choose his victim. He takes his time. The deer or buffalo have no idea heâ€™s near. He finds his prey and then he explodes from his hiding place and grabs it. Even if another, perfectly serviceable animal ends up within his reach, he isnâ€™t going to alter his course. He has chosen, and he would rather go hungry than change his mind."

-- Ilona Andrews
