THE ELEPHANT AND THE JACKALS
The Story: - A pack of jackals once saw an elephant in a jungle. They wanted to kill him and to enjoy a hearty meal. But they had not the courage to attack such a huge animal. One of them was very clever. It decided to play a trick with him. It went to him and said in a sweet voice, “you look very grand and majestic. So we want to make you our king. Kindly follow us to your throne. It is at a stone’s throw from here.” The elephant was greatly pleased to hear the news. He followed them with great pride. But they did lead him very for into a marshy place. He was caught fast in the mud. He could not move about they rushed at him in a body. They killed him very soon and feasted upon his meat for many days.
