Fox Without Tail - Story


 One day a fox in a jungle fell into a trap. He tried hard to be free and managed somehow but lost his tail. Without the tail the fox looked strange and ugly. He felt sad and ashamed. So he hit upon a plan. He called a meeting of all the foxes in the jungle. Seeing all the foxes in the meeting, he was very much pleased. When he stood up to deliver his speech, other foxes were making fun of him seeing him without tail. He got the point and so he told them to keep quiet. Then he told them with a gay mind that he had made a great discovery. He said,"What are the uses of the tails? I think, no use at all. Moreover, it makes us ugly. That's why I've cut my tail. Without the tail I feel so free, light and sportive. I can run faster than ever before. So cut off your tails as I've done." The foxes listened to him and took his suggestion a good one. The fox without tail also told them about the demerits of having tails. So, the foxes in the meeting were so touched by his speech that they started thinking their tails as burden and most of them wanted to cut their tails without making any delay. When they were about to do that, right at that moment a wise fox stood up and said,"Listen to me, please. Don't accept his advice. That fox fell into a trap and lost his tail. Now he looks funny and ugly. So, he wants us all look like him. Don't follow his advice,"The speech of the wise fox made other foxes think over the matter. Just at that moment, the wise fox again said,"Look at your tails. How nice they are! Nature has given us everything what is beautiful and useful. If we cut our tails, we will face many problems for it." Hearing that, all the foxes understood the trick of the fox without tail. They rebuked him and boycotted him. Being failure, the fox without tail went away for ever.
