Once there were three friends in
a forest. They were a deer, a crow and a jackal. One day the crow saved the
deer from a hunter. Since that day, the crow and the deer were great friends.
One day the crow was ill and he
could not go with the deer. The deer went to the field alone. The jackal saw
the deer and wanted to eat its flesh.
The jackal made a plan and made
friendship with deer. Then the deer introduced the jackal to crow. Since then
they were all friends.
One day the jackal took the deer
to a field to eat corn. The deer began to eat the corn from the field every
night. One night the farmer set a net. The deer did not see the net and walked
into it.
The jackal saw the deer in the
net but did not help him. He said to himself, “The farmer will cut the deer
into pieces and throw away some pieces of bones and flesh. Then I shall have a
good meal.” The jackal then hid himself in a bush.
The crow could not find his
friend the deer that night. “The deer must be in danger,” he thought. So he
began to search for his friend. After searching for a long time, he found him
caught in the net.
“Dear crow,” said the deer, “Your
words have come true. We must not make friends with strangers. The jackal is a
false friend. He brought me here and now I can’t get out of the net.”
“I will save your life,” said the
crow. In the morning, the crow saw the farmer coming towards the field.
“Lie down on the ground and
pretend to be dead,” said the crow to the deer. “When you hear me cawing, please
jump up and run away as fast as you can.” The crow then sat on the deer’s head
and pretended to strike him with his beak.
The farmer saw the deer and
thought him to be dead. He then took the deer out of the net, put it aside and
began to fold up the net.
The crow at once cawed. The deer
jumped up and ran away as quickly as he could. The farmer took up his club and
threw it at the deer. It did not hit the deer but it hit the jackal behind in
the bush and it dropped down dead.
