Rabbit
and Bear
Once upon a
time, there lived as neighbours, a bear and a rabbit. The rabbit is a good
shot. In contrary, the bear is always clumsy ad could not use the arrow to good
advantage.
One day, the
bear called over the rabbit and asked the rabbit to take his bow and arrows and
came with bear to the other side of the hill. The rabbit was fearing to arouse
the bear's anger so he could not refuse it. He consented and went with the bear
and shot enough buffalo to satisfy the hungry family. Indeed he shot and killed
so many that there was lots of meat left after the bear and his family had
loaded themselves and packed all they could carry home.
The bear was
very gluttonous and did not want the rabbit to get any of the meat. Th e rabbit
could not even taste the blood from the butchering as the bear would throw
earth on the blood and dry it up. The poor rabbit would have to go home hungry
after his hard day's work.
The bear was
the father of five children. The youngest child was very kind to the rabbit. He
was very hearty eater. The mother bear always gave him an extra large piece of
meat but the youngest child did not eat it. He would take it outside with him
and pretended to play ball with the meat. He kicked toward the rabbit's house
and when he got close to the door he would give the meat with such a great
kick. The meat would fly into the rabbit's house. In this way, the poor rabbit
would get his meal unknown to the papa bear.
