One day a hunter set a strong trap and placed bait next to it - a large piece of meat.
A hungry fox came running at the smell, wanted to grab the meat, but thought: “Something is wrong here. It’s the first time I’ve seen meat, and such a large piece, lying in a field.” The fox did not take risks and went its own way.
She met a wolf.
- Hello, fox. Why are you so sad?
- How not to be sad. I found a large piece of meat. And I am keeping a fast (fast).
“It’s so good that I’m not fasting,” the wolf was happy and began to demand that the fox show him this place.
“But it’s not far from here,” the fox showed.
The greedy wolf rushed at the meat and fell into the trap with its hind legs. And the fox came up, picked up the meat and began to eat.
- What are you doing? - the wolf shouted. “You’re keeping your spirits up, aren’t you?”
“I have already seen the young moon,” answered the fox, continuing the feast.
