A Pink Monkey

One day, a hunter goes into a jungle for hunting. He sees a monkey with pink colour fur, swinging from tree to tree.

"How nice if I could catch this monkey and show to the public. I can make lots of money," thinks the hunter.

So the pink monkey is too fast. The monkey jumps from tree to tree, swings from branch to branch, making it very very difficult to catch it.

The hunter is very tired following the pink monkey. He knows that he can't catch it without a proper plan. So he goes home.

After a few days of thinking, finally he comes out with a plan.

The next day, the hunter brings a bundle of balloons tied to a long rope. He then ties the balloons on one of the branches, and waits for the pink monkey.

The pink monkey sees the balloons from the far. He is curious about the colourful ballooons, so he comes closer to have a look. He plays with the rope. 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.

Mosquitoes And Spider

One day, a mosquito is flying in a jungle. Suddenly, he flies into a spider web and is stuck. The mosquito is very scared and shouts for help loudly.

Another mosquito is passing by, hearing the shout.

"What should I do?" asks the Mosquito B.

"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. 

Worm And Bird II

One day, a worm is taking a walk. The bird catches the worm and brings it back to the nest.

The bird is still quite full and he doesn't plan to eat the worm now. So he uses a string to tie the body of worm to his nest so that the worm can't crawl away. The bird then flies away to look for some more food.

Fortunately for worm, the bird ties the tail of worm to the string. In order to escape, the worm cuts off his tail and then crawls away from the bird's nest. The worm remains safe and alive. The bird also gets to eat some food (the tail).

After a few days, the tail of worm gets re-generated and the worm is happy again.

That half of worm is still alive. He stays in the stomach, eating the food and drinking the water from there.

After few days, he lays eggs in the stomach. The eggs hatch and baby worms come out of the eggs. The worms get hungry and bite the bird's stomach. The bird becomes weaker and weaker, and dies.

"My disadvantage is I can't swim but he can. But this time I think I can win," thinks the black horse.

The race starts. The red horse lights his tail with fire. He feels so painful as the fire slowly burning from his tail to his buttock. He runs as fast as he can, as he knows that if he doesn't, he will be burnt to death.
