Read the story
Little hunters are anthropomorphic creatures who grew up to the shoulder level of a grownup person the most. They are dressed in green clothes carrying a rifle on their shoulder, with a small, mouse size, black dog walking by their feet. You could hear their dogs from far away, as well as Little hunters calling them, and the sound of their hunting horns. Little hunters themselves were very silent; you cannot hear their footsteps or see them on the ground. They move fast, and you can see them in one moment, and they are gone in another. They rarely speak to people. They can be seen in all seasons, but mostly in autumn. Their sudden appearance used to scare people.
