Aesop | Greece
The Crab and the Fox
A crab exploring beyond the shore is devoured by a cunning fox, meeting a tragic end.
Text Version
In a distant land, there was a crab who got tired of living by the sea. He wanted to see what was beyond the water. One day, the crab decided to leave his home and explore the world.
As the crab walked through a nearby field, he met a fox. The fox saw the crab and thought, "This is my chance for an easy meal." The fox quickly jumped on the crab.
The crab tried to protect himself by waving his claws, but he was not strong enough. The fox grabbed the crab and ate him.
And so, the crab's adventure ended, showing that life outside his home was not as safe as he thought.
