An old tiger lives in the forest. He doesn’t want to look for food now. He often tells other animals to get him something to eat.
He sees a monkey and says, “I’m hungry now. Go to the village and get me a fat pig.”
The monkey says, “I can’t do that now. There is another tiger over there. He also wants a fat pig. He will not let me get anything for you to eat. I am afraid of him.”
“What?” cries the old tiger. “Show me that tiger. I will eat him.” “Come with me,” says the monkey.
The monkey and the tiger get to the bridge over the river. “Now look down at the river,” says the monkey. “Do you see it? The tiger?”
“Yes, I do,” cries the old tiger. “I will eat him up!” With these words, the tiger jumps into the river.
