Jungle buddies

Published - November 25, 2013 05:18 pm IST

Once upon a time, in a jungle, there lived a lion and a tiger.

One day, they were taking a stroll in the woods when a crow saw them from a tree. The crow had wanted the lion and tiger to fight for a long time. He decided to make some trouble.

He flew low to pinch the lion’s tail with its beak and hid behind the nearby bushes. The lion turned around and saw the tiger behind him. Thinking that the tiger had done it, the lion became angry and started quarrelling.

The crow was watching all this from behind the bushes and became happy. He started singing. The lion heard the crow and immediately understood that he had created all this mischief. He explained everything to the tiger and asked for his forgiveness.

They became good friends and never fought with one another again.
