He was sure that no animal would speak against him. Just then a jackal came that way and the lion asked the jackal to be the judge.

Popular Pages A Short Story: One day, as the woodpecker was flying in search of food, he saw a lion on the ground below, writhing in pain and discomfort.

Some time later, as the woodpecker was near starvation from not being able to find suitable food, he saw the lion eating a deer. Although too proud to simply ask the lion he had saved if he could share in the meal, he hinted that he was starving. Surely the lion would share his food with him, for the woodpecker had saved his life and was also so small he would only require the tiniest morsel. Seeing the woodpecker, and aware of his intentions, the lion became angry and threatened him. The ungrateful lion proclaimed that the woodpecker was lucky to be alive after being in his mouth and that if he did not fly away, he would kill him right then and there.

The woodpecker did as he was told and left.
