Crow and the snake moral story

Once upon a time a family of crows lived in a huge banyan tree. There was a Father Crow, a Mother Crow, and many baby crows. One day a huge snake came to live in the hole at the bottom of the tree. The crows were unhappy about this, but could do nothing. Soon Mother Crow hatched a few more eggs and some more baby crows were born. When the crows flew out in search of food, the snake ate up the babies. When the crows returned, they could not find their babies. They hunted high and low, but to no avail.

After a few months, Mother Crow gave birth to some more baby crows. This time Mother Crow stayed home when Father Crow went out in search of food. Ignoring the fact that Mother Crow was keeping a watchful eye on her babies, the snake still slithered up the tree and attacked the babies. Mother Crow tried to fight the snake off, but she was not strong enough. Other crows came to her aid, but the snake had already eaten the little ones and crawled back into its hole.

When Father Crow returned, he found all the crows weeping. He consoled his wife who wanted to leave the tree house immediately. Father Crow said that this tree had been their home for many years and they must live here. He thought of asking a wise old fox for help in order to get rid of the snake.

The old fox came up with a brilliant plan. He told them to go to the river bank the next morning where the ladies of the royal family would be bathing. Their clothes and valuables would be kept on the river bank while the servants would be watching over them from a distance.

 The fox asked the crows to pick up a necklace and while away making a raucous noise. This would make the servants chase them to the tree where the crows would drop the necklace into the snake's hole.

So the next morning when the crows flew to the river bank, Mother Crow picked up a pearl necklace and flew off as Father Crow cawed loudly to attract the servants' attention. The servants ran after Mother Crow and reached the banyan tree where they saw her drop the necklace into the snake hole. As the servants were trying to take the necklace out with the help of a long stick, the snake came out of the hole and hissed at them menacingly. The servants beat the snake to death. And so Mother and Father Crow lived happily ever after in the banyan tree.

King Cobra and The Ants story

There lived a King Cobra in a jungle. He always fed on bird’s egg, lizards, rats, frogs, small rabbits and other small creatures. Every day he ate lot of small animals and then slept the whole day. In course of time he grew big in size and his pride grew bigger still.

One day the cobra thought, “I am the mightiest animal in the forest. I am the king of the forest. Now I must live in a big house that suits my size and status.” So he selected a very big tree for his new house. There was an ant hill under the tree. The King Cobra said, “I don’t want this trouble here.” So he went to the ant hill and said to the ants, “I am King Cobra, the King of this forest. I order you to remove this rubbish from here and go off immediately.”

The other animals trembled in the cobra’s presence. But the tiny ants are decided to treat for his threat. He enraged himself and he lashed at the ant hill with his tail to break the mountain. 

The next moment, thousands of ants streamed out of the ant hill. They climbed all over the cobra’s large body and stung him hard. Thousands of thorny pricks all over his body caused unbearable pain to the mighty cobra. He wriggled and rolled in vain to keep the ants off. He struggled hard for some time and at last died a painful death.
