Fox and the Cave
The Fox and the Cave.
Once upon a time, there lived a lion in a jungle.
One day he could not find any food.
He was very hungry.
He was wondering what to do,
and what to eat as there were no animal, in the near by sight.
Where are all the animals?
Where have they gone?
Have they left the jungle?
He started cursing the animals.
He became very dull, and felt very weak.
While he was wandering here and there,
he spotted a cave.
As soon as he went near,
he became sure that some animal must be living here.
Now he was happy.
And idea struck up on him.
He thought, he will go inside the cave and hide there.
As soon as the animal comes inside,
he will kill it and satisfy its hunger.
Unfortunately for the Lion,
this cave belonged to a Fox, which is the cleverest animal of all.
So it was not easy for the LIon to fool him.
When the Fox returned after hunting,
his sharp eyes, fell on the footprints of the Lion.
He observed that the footprints are only going inside,
and not coming out.
He started thinking of a way,
to make sure whether the Lion is inside or not.
He got an idea...
Hello cave... How are you?
The Fox asked the cave.
There was a silence, as he did not get a reply.
He again asked the cave:
What cave, what happened?
You used to wish me as soon as I return.
Is there any problem?
When the Lion heard this, he became confused...
He thought that the cave stopped answering,
because he is inside...
So he started answering back.
Hello, you can come inside, there is no problem.
When the Fox heard this,
He became sure that the Lion is inside.
So he ran away, as fast as possible...
Thus the Lion could not get any food,
and died of hunger.
Moral:
If the Fox did not think wisely and observe keenly,
He would have fallen as the prey to the Lion.
Wise people will always be alert.
Use your brain to escape from any danger under any circumstance.
