The Hunter and the Quails
Quails in a beautiful forest outsmarted a hunter by flying up together, carrying the net and escaping, ensuring their safety and unity.

Once upon a time, there was a big, beautiful forest where many quails lived happily. They flew around freely and had plenty of food to eat.
One day, a cunning hunter arrived in the forest. He saw the quails and thought, "These birds will make a tasty meal!" He set up traps with nets and soon started to catch the quails one by one.
The quails were terrified. They huddled together and decided to find a solution. The wisest quail had a brilliant idea. She said, "When the hunter throws his net, we should all fly up together. That way, we can lift the net and escape."
All the quails agreed to the plan. The next time the hunter came, he threw his net, expecting to catch many birds. But as he did, the quails flapped their wings and flew up together, carrying the net with them. The hunter watched in surprise as his net and the birds disappeared into the sky.
From that day, whenever the hunter tried to trap them, the quails would fly up together, lifting the net and escaping. The hunter was not able to catch any more quails, and soon he had to leave the forest in search of food elsewhere.
And so, the quails lived peacefully in the forest, their unity protecting them from any harm that came their way.
