The fish One caught was huge. It grabbed the fish by the fin, but with a flick of its tail, the fish fell right back into the water.
The one Two caught was a little smaller. Two reacted much faster, though. The moment the fish was out of the water, it cupped it with both paws, bit down, and steadily carried it over to Shen Baoying.
The monkey troop had a strict hierarchy. Shen Baoying held the highest status among them, so even though they had caught the fish, they would offer it to her to eat first before it was distributed.
Shen Baoying patted Two's little hat and said excitedly to Niu Niu, "Did you see that? One and Two learned how to catch fish through the ice just like that!"
Niu Niu nodded. "That's amazing!"
Shen Baoying smiled. "I thought we'd have to teach them how to use spears, but it looks like that won't be necessary at all. Their paws are much better."
Snow Monkeys were naturally capable of fishing and could even swim; it had simply slipped her mind.
