He first approached a monkey and said, “Namaste, monkey brother! would you like to be my friend? The monkey said, you cannot swing like me because you are too big, so I cannot be your friend.
After this the elephant went to a rabbit and asked the same question. The rabbit said, you are too big to fit in my bill, so I cannot be your friend.
Then the elephant went to the frog living in the pond and asked the same question. The frog replied to him, you are too heavy to jump as high as me, so I cannot be your friend. Now the elephant was really sad because he could not make friends even after trying so hard.
Then, one day, seeing all the animals running here and there in the jungle, the elephant asked a running bear what was the reason behind all this fuss.
The lion of the jungle is out hunting – said the bear – they are running to save themselves from him. In such a situation, the elephant went to the lion and said that please do not hurt these innocent people. please leave them alone.
The lion made fun of him and asked the elephant to move aside. Then the elephant got angry and pushed the lion with all his might, injuring him and running away.
Now all the other animals slowly came out and started rejoicing over the defeat of the lion. They went to the elephant and said to him, “You are just the right size to be our friend!”
