Milly had initially been reluctant to share the black lizard she had discovered in the forest with anyone. However, as it became ill in the days that followed, she realized she had to call a veterinarian in order to save the animal.
However, she had not anticipated this man’s intense response to the animal.
Milly had to flee from the beast right away.
Milly remained utterly dumbfounded. The veterinarian’s eyes widened the instant she showed him the black reptile she had discovered, and he leaped back, yelling for Milly and her father to follow suit.
The veterinarian swiftly began to make a call and left the room, so they complied out of sheer shock, but they were unable to get any more information out of him.
He made it quite evident that he did not want the father and daughter to hear this exchange.
Milly began to worry that her pet Lizard might be taken away by this veterinarian. There had to be a problem with a response like that.
Her father stopped her when she tried to simply grab the terrarium and flee. Although he could sympathize with her feelings, he would not allow his daughter to disregard the veterinarian’s advice.
They planned to face the music and wait for her. And shortly after, the veterinarian returned to the office with the startling news.
The vet understood all too well what Milly had rescued from the jungle, but Milly had no idea what exactly it was.
That this thing was in his office at all was beyond him. It has no right to be in the country at all!
He had called the specialists, who were en route, since this was far beyond his area of competence.
Additionally, they posed two really challenging questions to Milly’s father.
However, what precisely had Milly removed from the forest? Why did the lizard shock the veterinarian so greatly, and was this creature harmful to her? Milly had a deep fascination with nature, particularly the animals that inhabited there, and she enjoyed going on exploration trips in the forest.
Nine-year-old Milly wandered off by herself into the woods, defying her parents’ customary watchful eye since she was so eager to explore.
Her reticent mother was persuaded to permit this solo outing by her father, who was eager to foster her bond with the natural world.
Equipped with a basket and jars to gather insects, Milly strolled contentedly until she came across an unknown, shadowy being.
