THE GOAT AND THE PANTHER MORAL STORY

  There was a small goat that used to graze along with many friends in the mountain forest nearby a village. They were a very happy flock. Things went smoothly. They sang and danced all along. A panther stalked that area. He was a very greedy panther.




He had the habit of attacking all animals in and around the village. Even if the animals pleaded for mercy, the panther never minded. He killed them. Once, the poor goat was stalked by the panther. The goat was very afraid. He tried hard to escape. But, he was well cornered.

He thought, "I have to do something to escape." So, the goat started to cook a plan. He stopped running and turned. With a gentle smile, he ran to the panther and said, "Hey mighty panther! You are such a great killing machine. You can kill anyone with one mighty stroke. But, look at me. I am so weak. can't even run as fast as you can. Why do you waste your energy by killing me?" The panther got confused and asked, "So, what do you want me to do now?" 

The goat took advantage of this confusion and said, "Look there beyond the mountain. I saw a stout bull grazing there. If you can catch up, you will have your stomach full." The panther was a very greedy one, wasn't he! So he left the goat and ran towards the mountain. The lucky goat escaped and ran to his friends happily.

Pintu watched with wonder at the ease with which the lumberjacks split large logs. He was observing their work. When a lumberjack had inserted a wedge to split a log, the bell rang to indicate their lunchtime. The lumberjacks set aside their work and went away for their lunch.         Pintu ran to the log with the wedge stuck deep inside. His curiosity increased. He left his hand inside the split end and tried to pull the log apart. Nothing happened. So Pintu decided to pull out the wedge and see what happened. In his anxiety, Pintu did not notice that he was sitting across the log and that his tail was wagering in the split of the log.  The moment Pintu pulled out ...

The woodpecker flew in the direction of the cry.              Soon he found a tiger, with tears filling in his eyes. "What happened?" asked the woodpecker. "A tiny piece of bone pricked my mouth. It still remains between my teeth. It is very painful," cried the tiger. "Open your mouth and I shall remove the bone," said the woodpecker. The tiger opened his mouth and the woodpecker pulled the bone out. "Thank you," said the tiger and left happily. After a few days, the woodpecker happened to meet the tiger. "Hello, tiger! How are you?" enquired the woodpecker with affection. The tiger was very happy to meet the woodpecker. They both turned into good friends and lived happily.
