One day a fox saw a flock of geese. Stealthily he managed to get amidst them. He was very happy, thinking that he would have a grand feast. The geese were very scared. The leader of the flock knew that even if they were to fly, some of them would be caught and killed by the fox. And it did not want any of its family members to die. So it thought of a plan.
`O Mr. Fox’ said the leader. You have caught us all anyway. You can eat us any time you want. At least allow us to say our last prayers’.The fox thought over this and agreed. He wanted to be generous. The leader signaled to the flock and honked loudly three times. The goose next to it picked and honked. The next one continued and so it went on till the fox was almost driven mad with the constant honking. At last, unable to bear the noise any more the fox ran away from there.
The flock of geese honked once more together and flew away happily.
