Lion and the mouse

a lion with a mouse

There once was a lion that was in charge of the jungle. One day the lion slept beneath a tree after finishing his dinner.

A mouse was one of the animals who loved fun and playing with other animals. One day it turned out as usual when the mouse was moving around the forest he met a sleeping lion and he began racing up and down the sleeping lion because he thought it would be amusing to play on it. Sliding down the sleeping lion, he ran up its tail.

The tiger became agitated and roared loudly, snatching the mouse with his massive paw. Despite the mouse's struggles, the lion was unable to swallow him due to his huge jaws. The mouse let out a panicked cry, "Oh King, I'm so scared." Don't eat me, please. Please pardon me this once and let me leave. I won't soon forget that, and perhaps I can assist you in the future. The idea that the mouse could help him made the lion laugh so much that he pulled up his paw and released the mouse. I appreciate your kindness and will always remember it, King. You are fortunate, my friend from before. Now go, but don't bother me one again, or I'll cook you, the lion angrily old the mouse which was trembling in front of the lion.

The lion was out and about in the jungle a few days later. While hiding behind a tree, the hunters set up a trap to catch the lion, and they waited for it to go close to the trap. They pulled the ropes after he finished.

As the hunters fastened the net, the lions let out a start and tried to break free.

The lion was still snarling loudly, so they went back to the hamlet to grab a cart. After hearing the roar, the mouse concluded that the monarch was in danger. I have to return the favor." Before long, he reached the lion and reassured him, saying, "Don't worry, my king, I will set you free." He scaled the trap and bit through the ropes with his little, sharp teeth.

After the lion was eventually able to escape the trap, it realized that even a little mouse may be a big help. I'm grateful, mouse. I swear not to bother you ever again. Remain content in my woodland. You have prevented a king from dying. This woodland now has you as its prince. I'm grateful, King. Bye-bye. See you shortly. I see. Where are you heading? Would you like to slide down my back and play on me? The lion asked the mouse. This statement sounded strange to the mouse after the mouse reflected on what happened last. But later the mouse agreed to slide on the back of the lion and play with the King of the jungle.

The lion and mouse noticed the hunters and started rushing in their direction when they came back with a big wagon to transport the lion. The hunters were so scared by the lion's deafening scream that they took off running back to the settlement. And with that, the mouse started to jump on the lion’s back and slide down his tail. The fun continued until evening. The two animals from this point promised one another a good stay in the jungle. Their friendship developed deep roots from that day.

The following day the lion invited the mouse to his house for dinner where the king of the jungle decided to appoint the mouse to be the prince of the jungle. The mouse was given the responsibility of being in charge of the welfare of the other animals in the forest.

The lion and mouse stamped to be lifelong friends.
