Short Story on "The Foolish Stag"

Once a stag reached a pool of water in a jungle. He started drinking water. As he was drinking water, he saw his reflection in the clear water of the pool. He was delighted to see his beautiful and long horns. But soon the joy of the stag turned into sorrow because he felt ashamed of his thin and ugly legs. All of a sudden, the stag saw a pack of hounds racing towards him. He turned round and running fastly, he disappeared into the jungle.educationsight.blogspot.com The hounds failed to catch the speedy stag. When the stag had gone out of reach of the hounds, his long horns got caught by bushes. He tried again and again but failed to free himself. Then, the foolish stag realized that his thin and ugly legs had saved him from the hounds but his beautiful horns invited his death. Soon the hounds approached there, caught hold of the stag and killed him.
