The Lion and the Boar

​

It was a hot summer day. A lion and a boar reach a��small water body for a drink. They begin arguing and

​

fighting about who should drink first. After a while, they

​

become tired and stop for a breath, when they notice

​

vultures above. Soon they realise that the vultures are

​

waiting for one or both of them to fall, to feast on them.

​

The lion and the boar then decide that it was best to ��make up and be friends than fight and become food for ��vultures. They drink water together and go their ways ��after.

�

Moral: Those who strive are often watched by

​

others to take advantage of their defeat.
