The Ant And The Elephant
The Ant And The Elephant
There once lived and elephant in a jungle .He was very arrogant and short tempered. He was very proud of his strength and huge body. The other animals in the jungle feared him a lot. He enjoyed doing this that showed off his strength and always troubled other small animals in the jungle.
In the jungle there also lived a family of ants in a tiny hole. The ant used to deposite the elephant for his haughty nature. One day when the ants were away to collect food, the elephant stopped them and sprayed a trunk full of water on them.
The ants got angry and said you should not trouble others for your pleasure. The elephant shouted angrily and said ‘’you tiny creatures,keep quiet,or I will crush you to death’’.
Now the ants decided to reach the arrogant animal a lesson for life. They slowly crept under his trunk and spread to his ears and started biting him. The elephant became restless and started crying for help.
None of the animals came forward to rescue him. They were happy to see him getting punished for his acts. He kept apologizing to the ants, but they continued to bite him.
When they were sure that he has learned his lesson, they let him go and Said ‘’This is how others feel when you hurt them.’’The ants marched off leaving a wailing elephant there. Then on, the elephant never troubled anyone in the joungle.
