The Family By Leon, Tyler, and John

The Meeki Meeki have 4-8 children in their family. The female usually picks the male based on how tough he is and his hunting skills. They usually marry at the age of 30. The male is usually the leader and teaches the male children to hunt for food. The female's job is to clean the house and teach the female to take care of themselves when they have a family. When the female doesn't do their job the male roars at the female to tell her don't do it again. Sometimes the brothers challenge each other to a dual who's the best and the winner gets to eat a special meal for their victory, The loser doesn't eat anything becasue the father thinks he's not tough enough to hunt, he doesn't get any food. When the last child moves out he or she eats the parents when they die then bury the bones same as the brothers and sisters when they die. Every year the brothers and sisters get together to celebrate they sucess. They have food at there, the males always goes hunting for a matophant because they thought of it of a holy meal to eat for the celebration. The females dance for 3 hours to show their thanks to the males for bringing food home for them to eat. When the celebration is over everyone sings the national song after that they leave.

When a intruder or an attacking animal attacks the young the male kills them and eats them for dinner, if it is a Terrayeti they go into a frenzy it kills it savagely and keeps attacking it for more than 5 hours! When the frenzy is over it falls down to a deep sleep for 5 days so the next oldest of the males takes command of the family for awhile. Great work!
