He would have no one left to rule over. He suggested that if the lion stayed home, one animal would surrender itself each day as food for the lion. The lion agreed to this offer on the condition that if they ever failed to send him an animal, he would go on a killing spree and finish all of them off.


From then on, each day an animal was sent to the lion and the lion was pleased.One day it was the turn of a fox to sacrifice his life to provide food for the lion. The fox did not want to be the lion’s meal. He thought of a plan that would save his life as well as the lives of all the other animals in the jungle.
