Once upon a time, a hungry wolf was looking around for something to eat. He had not been able to catch a single prey the whole day. He was starving due to hunger. Looking for some prey, he strayed into a meadow stealthily. The shepherd had left his flock of sheep unattended, for he had some urgent business to attend to. The wolf spotted the sheep and thought, ‘Oh, I am so lucky. Here are many fat sheep. I’ll eat them!’ He thought of a clever plan. He said aloud to the sheep, “Friends, I am very thirsty. I cannot move at all. Can one of you bring some water to me?” But the sheep replied, “We are not going to be fooled by you. We are not going to come to you in order to become your lunch!” The wolf was stunned. His clever plan failed due to the alert sheep.
Moral: Always be on alert.
