00:00Once upon a time, a fox and a wolf lived in a forest.
00:03They were great friends.
00:05But the fox was overly dependent on the wolf and barely helped the wolf with anything.
00:11When the wolf went hunting, the fox would always accompany him.
00:15Let the wolf hunt, the fox thought,
00:18and I'll sneak away with half of the food that he hunts.
00:21The fox followed the wolf wherever he went
00:24and ate all the food for free without doing any hard work.
00:28The wolf soon realized that his friend was fooling him.
00:31As a result, the wolf began to avoid his companion.
00:35The wolf would go hunting alone without informing the fox.
00:39One day, he said to himself,
00:41The fox is not a nice friend.
00:44He takes advantage of me for his own gain.
00:47I'm going to stay away from him from now on.
00:49After all, a fox's nature is always known to be cunning and deceiving.
00:54As winter approached,
00:55the wolf began hunting and storing his meat as preparation for the long winter ahead.
01:01During the winter, all of the animals would remain in their shelters.
01:05I should store as much food as possible.
01:07Otherwise, I'll starve to death.
01:09As time went by, the wolf started to hunt his prey all alone and worked really hard.
01:15The fox, on the other hand, did nothing since he assumed the wolf would take him hunting.
01:20He said,
01:21I'll wait till my friend goes hunting.
01:23It'll be a lot simpler for me.
01:25It's only a matter of following the wolf and eating with him.
01:29Even though the fox was using his friend for his own benefit,
01:32he felt sad thinking about it.
01:35When the wolf failed to contact the fox after several days,
01:38the fox went in search of the wolf.
01:41I'm curious as to what he's been up to, thought the fox.
01:45I've managed to survive on very little food, but some nice meat would be welcome.
01:50The fox came to the wolf's cave searching for him
01:53and realized that he couldn't just walk directly into the wolf's cave
01:57and inquire the wolf why he hadn't been hunting.
02:00As a result, the fox acted smart and feigned to be worried about the wolf.
02:05How are you, wolf, my dear friend?
02:08It's been a long time since I've seen you, the fox remarked.
02:12The fox quickly peeked inside the cave while pretending to be concerned.
02:16When the fox looked inside,
02:18he noticed the massive pile of meat that was collected by the wolf.
02:23No friend, the wolf coughed.
02:25I've been sick for a while.
02:27Once I feel better, I'll come to find you.
02:30The fox went after asking the wolf to feel better.
02:34I'm glad he went, the wolf said quietly to himself.
02:38I don't want to be friends with someone who is selfish.
02:41So he'll ignore me and go hunting without me.
02:44The fox wondered without thinking why the wolf acted in this manner.
02:49I will take my revenge on the wolf.
02:51He will have to pay for his behavior.
02:54The fox went off to a shepherd and brought the shepherd to the wolf's den.
02:59The wolf had now killed a large number of the shepherd's sheep
03:02because they were easy prey and the shepherd was furious.
03:06As a result, the shepherd beat the wolf to death.
03:09He took the wolf's fur home saying,
03:12Now you won't be killing my sheep.
03:14The fox who saw everything was filled with joy.
03:18This is what you get for being rude to me, he exclaimed,
03:21jumping and bouncing with delight.
03:24And now that you're dead, I'm going to eat all the flesh.
03:27Even now, the fox was unaware of what he had done,
03:30and it was clear that the selfish fox would never be aware of his actions.
03:35While the fox was laughing at the condition of the wolf,
03:38a hunter came by and caught the fox.
03:41He killed the fox immediately.
03:44I will get a good amount of money from this fur,
03:47he remarked, and took the fox's fur with him.
03:50At last, the cunning fox was punished by God for betraying his friend.
