What happens on the card

A coyote under a pear tree on a golden hillside. Tap and it hops to snap the two low pears. Then the golden pear with a bow, at the very top: hold to crouch lower and lower, let go to launch, and the trail camera flashes as it snatches it in mid-air. It puts the pear on top of the birthday cake as the candles light.

Who it is for

Wildlife watchers and trail-camera fans, hikers, the friend who never gives up on what they want, and anyone who jumps for food.
