SAMPLE DIALOGUE:

APE 1: Didn’t you see that?

APE 2: See what?

APE 1: The huge clawed thing that goes, “Mrawrrrr!” just tore a little grass-eating Bambi thing to bloody shreds!

APE 2: Are you sure they weren’t just playing?

APE 1: Playing? Bambi doesn’t have a head any more. That could happen to us!

APE 2: Stop it! You’re scaring me.

APE 1: I may not know exactly where we “am,” my dear, but it’s a damned brutal place. Red in tooth and claw.
