I'm thinking of an animal

I took River, our three year old, on a campout with the eleven year old scouts. One scout came with a bottle and a sleeping bag. Another one came with a sleeping bag and pan. The last one came with a sleeping bag and his iphone. I feel like there should be a punch line. There isn't. Sorry.

River told me she was afraid of the forest. She asked about what animals could eat her. She told me she could see their eyes.
River: "Are there any tigers in the forest?"
Me: "No"
River: "Are there any lions in the forest?"
Me: "No"
River: "Are there any cheetahs in the forest?"
Me: "No"
Me: "There are bears, and wolves, and cougars that can eat you in this forest"
River: .......(silence).......
Me: ......(thinking)....
Me: "They all went to bed though."
