# Fox and Lion

Once upon a time there lived a tiger and a fox in a forest. The lion was the king of the jungle. When the tiger would go out to hunt in the forest, seeing him, all the animals would get scared and start running around to save their lives. Due to which the fox became very jealous of the lion and thought in his heart that all these animals are afraid of the lion why they are not afraid of me.

Thinking that a trick came into the fox's mind that I should also do something that would make all the animals afraid of me. She went to the blacksmith's shop and asked him to mark my body like a tiger. The blacksmith heated the iron and began to make a mark on his body, so the fox started screaming and said, "Stop, I am in so much pain that I will die."

Then the fox went to the dyer and asked him to dye my back like a tiger. Dyer painted the fox's back like a lion, which made the fox jump for joy. She moved towards the forest and went into the forest and started roaring loudly like a lion. But hearing his voice, the forest animals started circling around him instead of running away. Coincidentally, it started raining from above due to which the color of the fox became discolored, seeing which all the animals started making fun of him and the fox bowed his head in shame.
