- 1. THE WISE ROOSTER A fox came out of the woods. He was hungry and wanted to eat some fat hens. He walked quietly towards the village. It was getting late. Hens and roosters were now flying towards their coops . The fox stayed under a big tree. Some roosters or hens spent the night in those big spreading branches.Sure enough, one fat rooster crowed loud and clear before flying to a branch of the tree. Excuse me for bothering you.Im looking for a rooster friend of my father. He said his friend rooster crows the loudest and clearest in the village. I think you are my fathers friend. Please crow once for me. The rooster closed his eyes and started to crow his best. As soon as the rooster closed his eyes, the fox seized him by the feet. The fox leaped and jumped towards the woods. But the rooster crowed as loud as he could. The villagers heard the roosters crow and they shouted, The fox got our rooster. Did you hear that? The people are saying you are running of with their rooster. Tell them Im your rooster no theirs. The fox stopped running. He put down the rooster and face the villagers. This is my rooster! This is not yours. The rooster escaped and flew high up in a tree. He looked down at the fox below. You are liar! I am their rooster. I am not your rooster! The poor fox beat his nose on the ground. You and your big mouth. If you did not talk, you would have had a rooster for dinner.
