Egg Hatching I

In a jungle, lives a pair of lazy ducks. One day, the mummy duck lays an egg. But she doesn't want to sit and hatch the egg for a month time.

"it is killing me. I can't go to play, can't go to swim, can't go anyway. If you want your baby, you have to do it," says mummy duck to the daddy duck.

"No, I'm not going to do it. It is your duty!" shouts the daddy duck.

Both of the ducks are not willing to hatch the egg. So they come out with an idea.

The mummy duck brings her egg quietly to the hen's nest. As the hen is sleeping on her nest, the mummy duck quietly push her egg into the nest, together with other hen's eggs.

"Its done!" tells the mummy duck to daddy duck.

The two ducks conetinue to play, swim, eat, sleep everyday. After a month, mummy duck goes to see the hen.

"Hey, are you stealing my egg to hatch?" shouts the mummy duck to the hen.

The hen is puzzled, "Of course no. Why would I do that?"

But the mummy duck pushes hen away from his nest. Both hen and duck look into the nest. Indeed, there is a duckling together with three little chicks in the nest.

The hen is really puzzled, "Why there is a duckling in my nest?"

Mummy duck doesn't say anything, but just bring the duckling back with her.

Fish & Prawn

One day, a big comes to a prawn. After sniffing for a while, the fish says, "It seems that you have not taken bath for a while. Your body is quite smelly."

The prawn is puzzled, "What do you mean? I'm always in the water. I'm taking bath every single second!"

"Well, you are not really taking bath eventhough you are in the water. See, you never take off your shell. Your body is still dirty under the shell."

So the prawn tries very hard to take off his shell. Eventhough it is painful, he thinks it will worth it to have a clean body.

After he is done, the fish says, "Well, thanks for that. I really hate eating the hard prawn shell."

The fish then swallows the prawn.

A tiger is having toothache, so he goes to see a mouse deer dentist.

"Help me to repair my tooth," shouts the tiger to the mouse deer.

When looking at tiger's record, mouse deer finds that everytime after the dental treatment, tiger would eat the dentist.

"Why...why did yo...u ate the...the dentists be...fore?" asks the scared mouse deer.

"Well, they made the dental treatment very painful. So you better do it painlessly!" roars the tiger.

In his heart, tiger laughs and palns to eat the mouse deer no matter how.

Mouse deer knows his trick, he starts to clean and fill the tiger's broken tooth. After a while, it is done. Mouse deer puts some cream on all his teeth.

"Ok, it is done. What you need to do is to bite the teeth hard, so that the filling will be firm," says the smiley mouse deer.

Tiger bites his teeth. Suddenly he jumps to the mouse deer and catches him. He is going to eat the mouse deer.

To his surprise, the mouse deer doesn't run away, but just smiles to him.

When the tiger wants to open his mouth to eat the mouse deer, he can't open it!

"Wht hd yu don to mmeee," tiger tries to speak but can't open his mouth.

"Nothing, I just put some superglue on your teeth, to make sure you don't use your teeth immediately. You can open your mouth again after 36 hours. Hahah...." 

Porcupine Spikes

Long ago, porcupines did not have spikes on their bodies. They often became the prey of other animals.

A porcupine decided to do something to protect himself. He first went to see turtle. "Can you share your hard shell with me, so that I can hide into it when being attacked?"

"No! I need it myself," said turtle.

The porcupine felt disappointed, he then went to see rabbit. "Can you share your long ears with me, so that I can hear the animals coming?"

"No! I need them myself," said rabbit.

The porcupine felt disappointed, he then went to see monkey. "Can you share your long arms with me, so that I can climb up the tree when being chased by animals?"

"No! I need them myself," said monkey.

The porcupine felt disappointed, he then went to see deer. "Can you share your long legs with me, so that I can run faster when being chased by animals?"

"No! I need them myself," said deer.

The porcupine felt disappointed, he then went to see bird. "Can you share your wings with me, so that I can fly into the sky when being chased by animals?"

"No! I need them myself," said bird.

The porcupine started to cry. He cried and cried for a long time.

An angel passed by and asked him what happended?

"I don't have anything to protect myself. I feel so hopeless."

The angel felt sorry, he then suggested to give porcupine a special clothes.

"This spikey clothes can keep you away from all the animals," said the angel.

The porcupine was so happy, he didn't noticed the angel said "all" the animals.

Indeed, after waering the spikey clothes, no animals dare to come closer to him, including his friends. He couldn't play with them anymore.   

Fish

One small fish is not happy living in the water. One day, he prays to God, "God! Please let me go to the land. I always get bullied by big fish in the water. Please!!!!"

God says ok.

So the fish jumps to the land, crawls on his tomach like a snake. Although his stomach is painful, he is happy to be able to live on the land.

He meets with caterpillar, dragonfly, snail and frog. He becomes their friends. He is happy to have a lot of friends.

"Seems like it is good decision to live on land," thinks the fish.

Suddenly, a cat jumps out from bush. The cat is surprised to see a real fish crawling on the land. But he decides to catch it and eats it.

The fish "runs" as fast as he can. Finally, he crawls up a tree and escapes from the cat.

However, he doesn't notice that a snake is waiting on the tree. The snake almost manages to bite the fish, before he jumps down from the tree onto a big rock.

"Wow, so dangerous..."

An eagle is diving down from the sky, almost manages to catch the fish on the rock. The fish jumps into a bush.

"God! I want to go back to the water. It is even more dangerous on the land!"

Turtle Learns To Jump

One day, a turtle sees a frog, a rabbit and a monkey jumping around on a field.

"What are you guys doing?" asks the turtle.

"We are competing, see who can jump higher," says the rabbit.

Turtle is really envy of them. He goes to see deer, who is the clevest animal in the jungle.

"Deer, can you teach me how to jump?" says the turtle.

The deer takes out a seed and plants it into the soil. "What you need to do is, everyday spend 5 hours jumping across the tree."

"But I can't see the tree," says the turtle.

"It will grow up slowly," says the deer.

The turtle thinks why don't I wait until it grows up first. So he waits until the tree grows up little bit from the seed. But the turtle still thinks it is too easy, so he plans to wait until it grows taller. The turtle waits and waits, the tree grows and grows, until one day the turtle realises that the tree has grown too tall and he can't jump over it.

He begs the deer to give him another chance. The deer takes out another seed and plants it again.

The turtle jumps over the seed (eventhough it is under the ground) everyday for long time. Soon a small tree grows up from the seed. Turtle keeps jumping on it everyday eventhough it is just a few centimeters tall. While the tree grows taller and taller, the turtle can jump taller and taller too. Until one day (after 10 years), the tree has grown up to be a big tree. Turtle finds himself easily jumping over the tree.

All the animals are surprised to find how tall can the turtle jump. 

Mosquito Looking For Food

One day, there are two mosquitoes flying around looking for food (blood). The first mosquito sees a human walking around, so he tries to suck the blood from the human.

Unfortunately, the human can feel the itching and hits the mosquito. The first mosquito dies.

The second mosquito is so scared that he quickly flies away from the human. As he is still hungry, he thinks it is safer to suck the blood from animals.

So he flies to a goat who is eating grass on the field. He tries to suck the blood from the goat, but the skin is covered by fur.

Then he flies to a duck who is swiming in the river. He tries to suck the blood from the duck, but the skin is covered by feathers.

Then he flies to a snake who is eating chicken in the grass. He tries to suck the blood from the snake, but the skin is covered by scales.

Then he flies to a rhinoceros who is sleeping in the mud. He tries to suck the blood from the rhino, but the skin is too hard.

"Where can I find an animal who has no fur, no feathers, no scales, no hard skin?" thinks the mosquito.

Then he flies to a frog who is eating flies in a drain. But he doesn't dare to go near the frog.

Finally, he sees a frog who is walking towards a river. He flies and stops at the turtle's neck and sucks the blood from the turtle. The blood is so nice that he keeps drinking it.

The turtle slowly goes into the river. By the time he realises it, the mosquito is drowned in the river.

The young rabbit goes home and asks his mummy, "Mummy, can I learn climbing tree from monkey?"

"No you can't dear. Our legs are short and are not designed to climb tree."

But the young rabbit is not convinced. He thinks that with his persevearance, everything is possible. So he goes to see the young monkey and asks the monkey to teach him climbing.

After a few months, the young rabbit can climb up the tree already.

"Let's go to your house today, Monkey!" says the rabbit.

So both of them climb up the tree, to go to monkey's house. However, they accidently step on a broken branch and fall down from the tree.

The young monkey manages to catch to another branch with his long tail. But the rabbit falls to the ground and bumps his head.

"Are you ok?" asks the monkey.

"Who are you? Who am I?" the rabbit has lost his memory.

"You are my friend. you can climb tree like a monkey," says the monkey.

The fox then goes to tells other foxes that, "The King in town is looking for pets to stay in the palace. You will get eandless food supply if you are chosen. However, the King doesn't like the long-bushy tail animals."

So in order to become King's pet and get endless food supply, all the foxes cut off their tails.

After a few days, the fox announces that, "I heard that the King has chosen a chimpanzee to be His pet. I feel sorry that all of us have not been chosen."

"Yes, you may."

The tree wishes for walking ability.

The next day, the tree can walk around with his roots. He is now very happy, he walks to the river to drink a lot of water as it has not been raining for a few days. He then walks into the jungle to say hi to other trees.

However, the other trees don't feel want to be friends with him.

"You are not one of us, go away!"

The walking tree feels sad, "Never mind, I can play with animals."

So the tree goes to the field to play with animals. The animals are shocked and scared to see a walking tree. The animals pick up some stones and throw at the tree and ask him to go away.

The tree is really lonely now, he has no friends. Suddenly he sees a mummy bird flies to him, and carries away all the baby birds from the bird nest.

"Where are you going? You have been staying with me for few months. Don't leave!" begs the tree.

The mummy bird says, "I can't stay on a walking tree. I'm afraid after going out to search for food, you will walk away to other place that I can't find my way home. Bye bye!"

But the rabbit still dreams of having colourful fur. One day, he sees a few bottles of paints in a rubbish bin, thrown by human. The paints happen to be very colourful - red, green, purple and blue paints.

When the monkey is holding onto the rope, the hunter quickly pulls the rope to untie it, and the balloons float into the air, with the pink monkey holding on the rope. The pink monkey is so scared being floated into the air. He doesn't dare to jump down from the air, so he holds the rope tightly.

The hunter then quickly pulls down the rope with balloons and monkey. He catches the monkey amd put it into a cage.

A Poor Lizard

One day, a lizard is playing on a floor in a house. A cat jumps on him and wants to eat him. Apart from his tail, luckily the lizard manages to escape.

The lizard quickly crawls and hides under the sofa, where the cat can't reach him. But the lizard is hurt. He feels painful for his whole body. He can't move at all.

The lizard feels sad and lonely and hungry under the sofa. He begins to cry, "Help me! I'm starving to death. Help!"

There is a spider who has a spider web house nearby, hears the cry. He approaches the lizard, "Hi, how can I help you?"

"Can you give me something to eat? I can't move, I can't go to find food," says the lizard.

The spider promises to give him food if he manages to catch any insect. So he goes back to check his web. There is one mosquito being stuck at the spider web. The spider decides to wrap the mosquito with his silk and brings it to the lizard.

He gives the mosquito to the lizard, "Here is a mosquito. You can have it."

The lizard is so happy to have food to eat. He thanks the spider and eats the mosquito together with the spider silk. Unfortunately, the spider silk is too sticky. It makes the lizard can't open his mouth to chew. The lizard also can't open his mouth to call for help!

The spider walks away seeing the lizard is enjoying the food. He doesn't know that his silk sticks the lizard's mouth, which makes him can't open it.

After few hours, the lizard dies.

Do You Really Want To Kill Him?

In a jungle, there is a tiger. This tiger is very strong and powerful. All the small animals are afraid of him.

Every week, the tiger will go and hunt an animal to eat. Sometimes he catches a rabbit, or a deer, or a horse, or a monkey, or a goat. That makes all the animals very worry. They scare that one day they will become the prey of tiger too.

One day, a grey rabbit gathers all the small animals to discuss about the tiger. "We should get rid of the tiger, for our future," says the rabbit.

But the old, wise black goat doesn't agree, "I think it is natural that tigers eat animals. Do you really want to kill him? You don't know what you will be getting."

Nobody agrees with the black goat. In fact, some animals decide to use him as a bait. So they dig a very deep hole, put the old black goat near the hole which is covered by grass. When the tiger comes out to look for food, he immediately see the black goat. He jumps to the goat but falls down into the hole together with the goat, and dies (the goat dies too).

All the animals are happy now, but not for too long. Soon, there are some wolves and foxes which initially are scare of the tiger, begin to return to the jungle. These wolves and foxes catch a lot of small animals to eat every day.

Now they understand why the wise black goat doesn't agree to kill the tiger, but too late. 

A Wild Monkey

One day, a villanger goes into a jungle to look for some fruits. He sees a small monkey lying on the ground, with some blood on the body.

"That monkey must be hurt by some animals," thinks the villager.

He brings the monkey back, cleans it, feeds it with food. After the monkey recovers, he teaches the monkey how to walk, eat, drink like a human. He also provides some clothes for the monkey to wear.

The villager's plan is to train the monkey to be like human. He also plans to bring the monkey around for some kind of performance, so that he can make some money from the monkey.

But the monkey doesn't like to be a human. One day, while the villager is going out to buy things, the monkey escapes from the house. He takes off all the clothes, socks, shoes, watch that he is wearing. He runs towards the jungle, like a monkey. He climbs up tree, swings from one tree to another tree, with his hands, his legs and his tail.

He is a happy monkey now.

Bear And Monkey

One day, a bear is catching some fish by a river. He manages to catch a few fish with his paws. He decides to cook the fish with fire, so he goes to collect some dry leaves and branches to start the fire.

While the bear is away, a monkey comes to eat the fish. When the bear is back, he finds that all his fish are gone. And there is a monkey sleeping near the place where he puts the fish.

The bear is so angry with the monkey. He wakes the monkey up and shouts, "Did you eat MY FISH?"

The monkey is so scared to see the big bear, "I'm sooo sorrryyy. I didn't know the fish belong to you. Please don't kill me, I'll catch the fish for yooouu."

"Fine!" The angry bear then uses a rope to tie to monkey's tail. He then throws the monkey into the river and shouts, "Go catch the fish!"

The poor monkey has to try to catch the fish in the water. Every few minutes the bear pulls up the monkey from the water to see whether he has caught any fish, and to let monkey to breath. The monkey has been thrown into the water for several times until he has caught enough fish for the bear.

"Maybe it is good to keep the monkey as a fish catcher for me," thinks the bear.

The poor monkey is now the bear's "helper" to catch fish. There are a few times when the bear pulls the rope too late, which almost make the monkey drown.

"I shouldn't eat the fish," thinks the monkey, but it is too late now. The only thing monkey is thinking of, is to find a chance to run away from the bear.

"Help me to get out of here. The spider almost wakes up," shouts the Mosquito A.

"But how?" asks the Mosquito B again.

But these two mosquitoes start to discuss what they can do. Finallly, they come up with a plan.

The second mosquito quickly flies to a palm oil tree. He then uses his probascis to poke into a palm oil seed, sucking the oil out of it. The Mosquito B flies back to the web, spits out the palm oil onto the body of Mosquito A. He doesn it for several times. After bathing with the palm oil, the whole body of Mosquito A becomes slippery and he manages to fly out of the spider web.

The spider just wakes up to see the Mosquito A is struggling out of the web. He quickly runs towards the mosquito, with the hope to catch it before it flies away. But the web is too slippery with the palm oil on it. The spider slips and falls down from the web before the Mosquito A flies away.
