Once there lived a group of mice under a tree in a hole. But once a group of elephants came that way and destroyed the homes of all the rats as a result of which many of them were crushed to death. Then the king of rats decided to approach the elephant chief and request him to guide his herd through another route. The elephant king agreed to this and took another route to the water. And so the lives of the rats were saved. One day a group of elephant-hunters came and trapped the group of elephants in huge nets. Then the elephant king suddenly remembered the king of the rats. He summoned one of the elephants of his herd which had not been trapped, to go and contact the king of rats. On listening to the elephants roar, the rat king took his entire group of mice and they cut open the nets which trapped the elephant herd. So the elephant herd was totally set free. Moral: A friend in need is a friend indeed.

Once upon a time there lived an elephant in a village. There lived a tailor in that village too. They became friends. The elephant used to a river for a bath. After drinking water and taking a bath it would pass by a tailor’s shop and the tailor would give it something to eat.

The clothes were spoiled with mud. The tailor suffered a great loss. He felt sad for his misdeed. But it was too late. Moral: tit for tat.
