Fate is very fond of the sheep and declines to push them around, but she is a mighty hunter when it comes to chipmunks, leaping through the air and pouncing on them. She has never caught one, and is happiest stalking them, as she did in the woods this morning. The chipmunk being pursued had long climbed up the tree and was high  up in his hole, but Fate, a mighty hunter, was still prowling quietly around the base of the tree, hoping for a surprise.
