Poly Play!

The fleeing deer is to be pursued and hunted,
but only 10 shots are available.
A shot which hits the deer is not deducted.
About every 15 seconds a shot must be fired,
otherwise this shot is lost.

The Hare must eat everything which it can get.
It must take itself before the wolf in eight,
it wants to eat it up!
Scoring: Pea 1 point, carrot 5 points, pear 7 and/or 10 points
