The story’s events revolve around forest animals and nature, telling that there was a pure spring with cold water. It was guarded by a group of foxes only, and they drank from it and quenched their thirst. But unfortunately, they prevented the rest of the forest animals from drinking from it. The rest of the forest animals were forced to go far away to quench their thirst. After a period of this situation, one of the foxes, the fox Farfar, asked to change this unjust situation. The other young foxes agreed to this, and they challenged the injustice in favor of the rest of the forest animals. Many events and challenges occurred that the brave fox Farfar and his colleagues faced!
Beginning of the Story: It is told that in ancient times, in a distant forest, a group of foxes lived near a cold water spring. The foxes guarded the spring and prevented forest animals from approaching it. The animals searched for water in the neighboring forests.
Thirst and Weak Animals: The weak animals feared the fierce foxes. The poor animals walked a very long distance to get water. The fox Farfar said to himself: Why do the foxes do this? Water should be for everyone. It’s selfishness from the foxes. There’s a lot of water, most of which the foxes don’t use, and it goes to waste. Why do we prevent the weak poor animals, since the spring is enough for all of us throughout the year?!
Farfar and the Other Foxes: The fox Farfar consulted the young foxes about why they prevented the rest of the animals from drinking from the spring, which forced the poor animals to search for water in distant forests. The young foxes answered saying: It’s a bad inherited habit, and it must be changed and gotten rid of.
The Fox Farfar and the Big Fox: The foxes went, led by the brave fox Farfar, to the big fox. Farfar asked him to cancel the bad habit and allow the rest of the animals to drink from the spring. But the big fox refused his request and shouted at the young foxes. But the fox Farfar insisted on his opinion and said to the big fox with firmness and courage: We will declare rebellion and disobedience until this injustice is lifted from the rest of the animals and the bad habit changes.
The Young Foxes and the Rebellion: Indeed, all the young foxes rebelled, declared disobedience, and decided to abstain from drinking water and guarding the spring as well until their demands were met.
The Decision of the Big Fox: Before the disobedience that the big fox saw from the young foxes, the big fox decided, after consulting his assistants, to allow the forest animals to drink from the spring and not prevent them again or harm them when drinking.
The Forest Animals and the Fox Farfar: When all the forest animals learned that they were allowed to drink from the river, they were extremely happy. They learned that the fox Farfar was the one behind this idea. They all went to the fox Farfar and thanked him for what he did for them. Everyone lived in peace and harmony, happy, joyful, and delighted.
