The Lion and the Cows

Once upon a time, in a jungle lived four cows. The cows were very close friends who
always stood by each other in good and bad times. Whenever a wild animal tried to attack them,
all four cows used to fight together and chase them away. Therefore, no animal in the dense
jungle dared to attack the four cows.

But, there also lived a big lion in that jungle who wished to kill and eat the four cows. He
tried several times to attack and kill them, but as always, all four cows chased him away. The lion
understood that it was not possible for him to kill even one cow till they were united.

So, the lion started thinking of different ways to separate them. Finally, he came up with a
devious plan. He started spreading rumours and telling false tales in the jungle about the cows.
With the help of other animals in the jungle, the lion was soon able to pitch the cows against one
another. A huge rift was created between the four cows, and they started detesting each other. The
lion was happy to see his plan working.

After some days, the lion attacked one of the four cows. The other three cows did not
come to help their former friend, even after watching that she was being attacked by the big lion.
After a few a days, the lion killed another cow. And then, the two cows that were left also had to
face the same fate and were killed by the lion.
