It's rough out there in the wild. Everyone's prey to someone and if you're not, well the humans just might organize a hunt once or twice a year to trim your numbers (Here's lookin' at you, deer). That's why sometimes it's best to just blend in and hide your teeth away for a little while. If they can't see you, then they probably can't eat you either.
