A Poor Monkey and a Cunning Lion

      One day, a monkey was caught by a lion while he was walking in the forest. The monkey begged the lion to let him go. He promised to catch a rabbit for him. The lion agreed but he did not trust the monkey. He hid behind the tree to observe the poor monkey while he was digging a hole. He then covered the hole with leaves.

      Soon, a rabbit passed by and asked the monkey what he was doing. The monkey replied that there were some delicious carrots under the leaves. The hungry rabbit was happy to hear that and immediately jumped into the hole. At once, she noticed that it was a trap but it was too late.


      Unluckily, the lion lied to the monkey and ate both of them. In the end, the monkey regretted that he wrongly trusted the cunning lion.
