The Crane and The Greedy Wolf Story

wolf and crane-moral story
Once there lived a wolf in a forest. One day the wolf was lucky to get a fat lamb. It was too greedy. He was eating so hurriedly that a small piece of bone got stuck in his throat. He gurgled hard. He tried to swallow. He tried to spit it out. But, nothing worked out. The bone won’t move. He got afraid.

“If I can’t take the bone out, I can’t eat. I will die of hunger”, he thought sadly. Suddenly he remembered the crane who lived nearby lake. He thought, “The crane has a long neck. She can reach and take out the bone”. So off he went to the crane and said, “Please take out the bone from my neck. I will pay good”.

The crane took out the bone and asked for her fees. The wolf replied “Aren’t you happy that you put your head into my mouth and got it out safely? Forget the fees”.

Moral: Good for the evil minded are forgotten.
