The Wolf and The Doctor Crane

Once upon a time there lived a wolf in a forest. It was so much of hungry and not eating last couple of days. He was in search of his prey. He spotted a goat. ‘Oh it will be wonderful to have this fat goat as my meal’.

The goat spotted the hungry wolf.’The wolf is coming in my direction. I better run and save my life.’ The goat started to running. Before the poor goat can escape, the wolf pounced and instantly killed him. He started to enjoy the flesh of the goat. ‘Wow! Very tasty!’. While relishing the flesh of the goat, suddenly…Aah! Something is hurting my throat badly.’

‘Oh! It is a piece of bone of the goat. It is neither coming out nor going in. I am helpless. It is hurting me. If I try to eat it pains me even more.’ He was not able to eat anything. The wolf seeks someone's help. He went to the doctor crane. ‘This crane has a long beak. Let me take his help to remove the bone that is stuck in my throat. I can then enjoy the goat’s flesh.’

Dear crane. How are you? This hungry wolf is planning to allure me. Better I fly immediately. thought the crane. ‘My dear crane do not worry. I will not harm you. I need your help. If you help me, then i will gift you something very useful’.

‘What help do you want from me?’. ‘There is a painful bone piece stuck on my throat. Can you please remove it with your long beak?’. ‘I will remove the bone piece but you will have to reward me nicely. The wolf opened his mouth wide. The crane immediately pulled out the bone piece.

Swiftly the wolf started to walk away. ‘Hey! Where is my gift? You are not even thanking me for relieving you of the painful bone.’

‘Thanks me that I let you go alive. If you want the reward then you will have to enter my stomach!’. ‘Forget the gift. I better save my life’. said the crane.
