Solution
We went to Jim Corbett National Park for a family vacation. One day, a very strange incident happened to me. We were sleeping in our tent when suddenly I heard a strange sound outside my tent. It was a very dark night. I was feeling extremely scared. I looked out for a torch and went outside without informing anyone. After walking five to ten steps, I saw strange footprints imprinted on the muddy ground. They were very tiny footprints and that too had seven fingers. I was completely amazed to see the extraordinary footprints. I kept on following the footprints and came very far after following them. But, to my disappointment, I wasn’t able to find anyone there.
