I never saw any wild animals, but one day I saw a huge turtle and I killed it. Its meat and eggs were excellent and an enjoyable difference from my normal diet of goat. Like all of my food, the only way I could cook the turtle was by putting it in the fire. Cooking this way meant that my food was always burned. What I most wanted was something to boil meat in, but I hadn't found any pots on the ship, and I didn't know how to make one.
