The Clever Goat and the Gullible Predators

A long time ago, a baby goat wandered into a dense forest. Drawn by the sight of lush green grass. he ventured deeper into the woods. After filling his stomach with the delicious grass, the baby goat decided to return home. However, as soon as he started making his way back, two jackals appeared.
Baby Goat: “Mother, save me!”
Hearing this jackals grinned at each other.
Jackel 1: “What a fresh and tender meal we have here! we will feast like kings today.”
 As the jackals moved closer to catch the baby goat, his mother suddenly appeared, having been searching frantically for him.
Jackal 2 (laughing): This is going to be easier than we thought.
Goat Mother: Don't laugh too much. The lion king will hear you and you'll be in trouble.
Jackal 1: Why should we worry about the Lion King?
Goat Mother:  "The Lion King himself has ordered us to stay here. He wants us for his hunt. If he finds out that you ate us instead, he won't let you live."
 The jackals hesitated, beginning to feel nervous.
Jackal 2: How would the Lion King know that we ate you? Do you think he is watching us right now?
Goat Mother: “You can eat us if you dare, but remember, defying the Lion King is like signing your own death warrant.”  
Jackal 2: "I think this goat might be telling the truth. Stealing from the Lion King could mean becoming his prey ourselves. Let's get out of here!"
The jackals, now terrified, quickly ran away.
As the mother goat and her child continued their journey back to the village, they suddenly encountered a lion blocking their path. The baby goat terrified once again.
Goat Mother: Wait Lion King ! If you harm us, the lioness will be furious.
Lion: Where is the Lioness you are talking about? What can she possibly do to me?
Goat Mother: Do you think I came to this dense forest for a picnic? No, the Lioness caught me and told me to stay here until she returned.
Lion: How can I believe you?
Goat Mother: “Whether you believe me or not is up to you, If you harm us, you'll have to face the wrath of your lioness.”
The lion, now cautious, pondered her word.
Lion: You're right. who would want to mess with the Lioness?" 

Without any word, the lion turned and walked away into the jungle.
As soon as the lion disappeared. the mother goat hurried back to the village with her child, safe and sound. Thanks to her clever thinking, she had saved both herself and her child from certain doom.

Moral: Using your brain can make any difficulties easier to handle.
