Animals in the jungle live their lives every day in fear, just because of the almighty lion. They know that they could lose their lives to the lion at any point in time. They have no other home to move in to; they couldn’t help but adapt to the forest and accept their fate.

Once upon a time, there lived a mighty lion who was full of himself because of his strength and power over other animals in the bush.

Sometimes, the great lion doesn’t kill other animals for food; he kills them for fun. The way other animals lose their lives to the lion terrified all the animals in the bush, they became so concerned about their survival.

One day, they all gathered for discussions on how to solve the big problem in the bush.

Some of the animals that attended the meeting were the deer, tortoise, hare, and monkey.

When the meeting started, the deer said:

“thank you all for coming, today I hope we come up with a solution that will save us and our children in this forest.”

He continued, “If the lion continues these killings, none of us will be left alive in this our small kingdom.” The deer stated.

“Yes, you’re correct. He kills much more than he supposed to,” yelped the small hare.

The monkey said, “It is important that we figure out the solution to this crisis.”
