  4. Q’s and A’s 1 How did Karana help the wounded otter? What name did she it? She didn’t do anything about the gash, for salt water heals and herbs wash right off, but, she gave it six fish every day. She named it Mon-a-nee, meaning little boy with large eyes.

  5. Q’s and A’s 2 What was Karana doing when she encountered Mon-a-nee again? What did Karana rename Mon-a-nee? Karana found Mon-a-nee while collecting abalones. She renamed Mon-a-nee Won-a-nee because he was a she.

  6. Q’s and A’s 3 How have Karana's feelings changed about the animals on the island? Karana's feelings changed about the animals because she made friends with some of them.

  7. Q & A 4 Describe how Rontu died. Rontu did not return to Karana’s house so she went out to look for him. Karana found him in the cave where he used to live and he was almost dead. Soon he died.

  8. Q & A 5 How did Karana catch a wild dog and what did she name it? Karana put the dog to sleep and carried him to her house. She named the dog Rontu-Aru

  9. Quote After that summer, after being friends with Won-a-nee and her young, I never killed another sea otter. I had an otter cape for my shoulders, which I used until it wore out, but never again did I make a new one. Nor did I ever kill another cormorant for its beautiful feathers, though they have long, thin necks and make ugly sounds when they talk to each other. Nor did I kill seals for their sinews, using instead kelp to bind the things that needed it. Nor did I kill another wild dog, nor did I try to spear another sea elephant. This is important because it shows how much Karana loves the animals on the island.
