30. The Stag and his Horns

The Stag and his Horns.
Once a stag was drinking water in a pool. He saw the reflection of his horns in the water. He felt proud. When he saw the reflection of his legs, he felt ashamed. Just then, he heard the barking of a hunter's dogs.
He ran away as fast as he could. His thin legs helped him to escape. He realized that his ugly-looking legs were his real friends.
Soon his beautiful horns proved an enemy to him. They got entangled in a bush. He tried his best to release himself. But he could not succeed. The dogs reached there. They killed him.
Moral: All that glitters is not gold.
