The Foolish Lion & The Clever Rabbit*
"Once upon a time, there lived a greedy lion who attacked and killed animals and that’s why every animal in the jungle was very afraid of him. One day they decided that each animal would go to the lion per day as his prey. The lion agreed, When it was the rabbit’s turn, they decided to send the wise old one. He traveled slowly and reached the lion’s den before sunset. The lion furiously asked him, “Why are you so late?” The rabbit answered, ”A group of rabbits was coming to you, but on their way, the others were attacked by another ferocious lion. I managed to escape and came here.” The rabbit also mentioned that the other lion was challenging this one. The lion was extremely angry and asked the rabbit to take him to meet the new lion. The wise rabbit took the lion to a deep well and showed him his own reflection. As the lion growled, his reflection did the same. He considered his reflection to be his enemy. The enraged lion jumped into the well to attack the other lion and ended up dying. Thus, the wise old rabbit saved all the animals in the forest."
