The story is about giant elephant and the jackals. A giant elephant lived in a forest. A pack of jackals also lived there. Jackals were tempted to watch the elephant strolling and moving his trunk. They used to fantasized about eating the elephant.
But they were helpless to hunt the elephant and enjoy his meat. This temptation continued for a long time. One night all the jackals gathered and started pondering about,how to kill elephant.
An old jackal said," Although we are small in size but we can think of a trick to trap the elephant. You want to eat the meat of the dead elephant but i will provide you the meat of an alive elephant. The old jackal was now the leader of the pack.
The elephant was wandering in the forest. The old jackal came towards him and bowed down respectfully. Then he said," you are the strongest animal of the forest. I want to coney a message in behalf of my friends. We have decided to make you our king and live with peace and harmony in your rule.
The elephant said ,"i accept your proposal. The jackal said my friends are waiting for you on the other side of the forest. They want to say you welcome with keen heart. They have arranged a feast for you and you will be served with delicious food. So the elephant began to follow the jackal. The jackal took him to a marsh and stared to cross the marsh by jumping on it because his weight was too less. The elephant stepped in the marsh joyfully but very soon he was sinking in it.
He was sunk in the marsh up to his knees . the elephant was struggling hard but all in vain. He could move neither forward nor backward.
The elephant said," i am trapped here,it is my order to pull me out of this marsh" The jackal said you are a huge animal , i cannot pull you alone." Should i call my friends?"The elephant was in trouble so he said," Yes immediately."
The whole pack of jackal came there. They started to bite the elephant and eat his meat delightfully. The tried to avoid and trumped a loud but the jackals ate him quickly.
