The Donkey, the Cock, and the Lion

A donkey and a cock lived in an enclosure. One day, a lion was about to pounce on the donkey when the cock saw them and started crowing loudly. The lion was frightened by this strange noise and ran away. The donkey was delighted to see the lion running away. 

If I chase the lion, the king of the jungle, all the other animals will greatly respect me, he thought. So, he began chasing the lion. Suddenly, the lion turned around, pounced on the donkey, and killed it.

Pride begins in ignorance and ends in ruin.
