               There was a hunter named Chanchal. He used to earn his livelihood by

               catching birds and deer. Once he came home by spreading a net in the
               forest and the next day when he went to the forest in the morning, he
               saw that a tiger unfortunately got trapped in the net he had spread. He

               thought, 'The tiger will eat me; So I should run away.
               The tiger pleaded, 'O man. Good welfare to you If you free me, I will
               not kill you. The hunter then drove the tiger out of the trap. The tiger

               was tired. He said, 'O man! I am thirsty Quench my thirst by bringing
               water from the river, the tiger after drinking water said to the hunter
               again 'Now I am hungry. Now I will eat you.

               Chanchal said, 'I have practiced religion for you. You lied you want
               to eat me? The tiger said, 'Hey idiot! Nothing is impossible for a person
               suffering from hunger. Everyone wants selfishness. Chanchal asked the
               water of the river. The water of the river said, 'This is what happens,

               people bathe in my water, wash clothes and go away after discarding
               sewage and urine, etc. In fact, everyone wants selfishness.
               Chanchal went to the tree and asked. The tree said, Humans rest in our

               shade,  eat  our  fruits,  then  strike  with  axes  and  always  trouble  us
               wherever they bite. Everyone wants selfishness.
               A fox hiding behind plum bushes was listening to this She suddenly
               goes to Chanchal and asks- "What's the matter? Tell me too." He said

               "Hey, Auntie. You have come at the right time. I have protected the life
               of this tiger, but it only wants to eat me." He then told the fox the whole
               story.

               The fox said to Chanchal - Okay, you spread the trap Then she said
               to the tiger - I want to see how you are trapped in this trap. The tiger
               entered that trap to show the incident.


               The fox said again-now show it by jumping again and again. He did
               exactly the same. He got tired of jumping continuously. The tiger tied
