Description

Despite their fearsome appearance and reputation, California green morays are timid animals that only attack when they feel there is no other option. Like all morays, they would rather hide from a threat than face one.

I read a series called the Underland Chronicals. I read it every years because, well, it's amazing. Same author as the Hunger Games.

In the 3rd book, we meet a character who hates war, who learned from the animals of the Jungle that fighting should only be used as a last defense. Instead, they hide, they threaten, they make themselves look bigger, or they flee, before fighting becomes an option.

Reminds me of these morays.
