***********************************************************************
Once upon a
time, there lived a large and fearsome lion in a dense and large forest. Every
animal in that forest use to fear him and would never dare to cross his path.
He was living proudly and happily as no one was there to
challenge him and make him go down on his knees. This selfish attitude made him
overhunt and he started hunting for fun. He use to hunt for animals even when
he was not feeling hungry.
This leads to an imbalance of nature and the biosphere of
that forest which in turn leads to scarcity of food for the lion. Due to which
he had no choice but to leave that forest and find a new place to settle where
there is no shortage of food and he can once again live happily.
After a few days of travel, he found a forest where he
can see many animals. He rested assured that he can live here and there will be
no shortage of food for him.
This forest was near a developed town and whenever any
person or stranger use to come into that forest, a monkey used to start making
loud noises which in turn would alert the animals of that forest and they would
run to safety. This act of monkey protected the biodiversity of that forest and
it was growing in area and animals were living peacefully in that forest
without human intervention.
For a few months, the lion hunted only when he was
feeling hungry, but after that, he again started hunting for pleasure. The
monkey in that forest was wise enough to judge the lion and saw that this act
of the lion will destroy the forest.
So he asked the proud lion to stop hunting for pleasure
as one day this will lead to the destruction of the forest and its biodiversity
and just hunt whenever you feel hungry. But the proud lion thought that the
monkey was only jealous of him and didn't properly take his words.
So now whenever the lion use goes hunting the monkey used
to make loud noises as if any human intervention is there in the forest and
animals would run back to safety. This made every hunt of a lion a failure.
As the lion didn't get any food for a few days, he
thought of making peace with the monkey and invited him to his den as he wanted
to personally apologize to him and didn't want any other animals to see him at
this stage. The monkey hesitated for some time but agreed as he was
kind-hearted and thought that if this will lead to the protection of the
biodiversity of the forest, this risk is worth it.
When the monkey came to meet the lion, the proud and
selfish lion killed him in his den. He never thought of apologizing and all he
wanted was to kill that monkey and again build his fearsome and proud status in
the jungle.
After a few days of this incident, a large-scale human
intervention started in the forest as there was no monkey to alert the animals.
One fine day when the proud lion was roaming fearlessly in the jungle, he was
caught in one of the traps that were laid by one of the town poachers and was
caged and taken to the town and then exported to bigger cities where he spent
the rest of his life.
Moral:
Mother nature has made everyone according to its role on this planet. We should
never be proud of our strength and instead, use it to help others. Otherwise,
your act of selfishness will harm you in one way or the other.
