Lesson 18-3     Porpoises

This is not easy,and may require two porpoises working together. In another game, as the turtleswims across the oceanarium, the first porpoise swoops down from above andbutts his shell with his belly. This knocks the turtle down several feet. He nosooner recovers his equilibrium than the next porpoise comes along and hits himanother crack. Eventually the turtle has been butted all the way down to thefloor of the tank. He is now satisfied merely to try to stand up, but as soonas he does so a porpoise knocks him flat. The turtle at last gives up bypulling his feet under his shell and the game is over.
