After being shot by a college student, one of these animals stays alive by telling stories of his past life as a 19th-century poet (15[1])and freedom fighter in the novel Red Earth and Pouring Rain. One of these animals compares dense vegetation to “indecipherable calligraphy” in a book whose author states, “fixity is always momentary” and claims to “invent” (15[1])his path while “traversing” it. In the opening fable of a treatise translated as “Loss of Gains” by (*) Arthur Ryder, this animal narrowly avoids being fed to the wife of a crocodile he befriended (10[1])by offering fruit. A poetic travelogue titled for this animal (10[1])recounts a journey to the temple city of Galta undertaken by Octavio (10[2])Paz. (10[2])These (10[1]-5[1])animals eat crumbs of dropped puffed rice (10[1])and attack (10[1])Bobby (10[1])Das, (10[4])who is saved by Mr. (10[1])Kapasi, (10[1])in the story “The (10[1])Interpreter of Maladies.” For 10 points, (10[1])what animals include vanaras such as Hanuman?
