The Elephant and the Sparrows
A sparrow couple had a beautiful nest with eggs, on a tall, strong tree, and was expecting
their little ones soon. However, an arrogant elephant soon visited the area and shook the
tree so hard, that he managed to destroy the nest and the eggs. Angered and saddened by
this, the sparrows decided to seek revenge. They asked their
woodpecker friend to help them. The woodpecker, along with his
friends, the fly and the frog, devised a plan. The frog asked the
fly to buzz near the elephant’s ear. He said, “When the elephant
closes his eyes, woodpecker, you must pierce his eyes. The
elephant will stand up and try to find water. I will croak far away and the elephant will think
there’s water around and reach the place. We will create a big pit and the elephant will fall
into it.” At sunset, they worked as per the plan, and the elephant fell into the pit and died.
Moral of the Story: It’s not physical strength and haughtiness that wins, but intelligence
and teamwork that matters.
