那些給我智慧和勇氣的寓言故事13:貪婪的獾
One day, at a farmhouse, a hunting dog saw a fox catching a fat hen. The fox held the hen in its jaws and ran off into the jungle. The hunting dog chased the fox who could not run fast enough because of the hen held between his jaws.
有一天，狐狸在農舍偷肥母雞時被獵狗發現了。狐狸叼起那隻雞拼命地往森林裏逃。狐狸因爲叼着母雞，跑不快，獵狗在後面緊追不捨。When the fox passed by a badger outside his cave, the fox put down the dead hen and said,“Brother Badger, I have stolen this hen from a farm. Would you please hide it in your cave first, and we can enjoy our dinner later together？”
這時，正巧碰到一隻獾在洞口附近徘徊，狐狸放下那隻死雞，說道：“獾老弟，我從農舍偷了一隻肥母雞，你先叼回洞裏去吧，晚上咱們一同分享好嗎？”The badger happily carried the big fat hen into his cave while the fox quickly ran off.
獾興高采烈地把它叼進洞穴裏去了。狐狸飛快地逃走了。
The hunting dog reached the cave and stopped when he saw some blood stains at the entrance.
獵狗追到這個洞時便停了下來，因爲它看見洞穴入口處有雞的血跡。The badger shouted from inside the cave,“Dear Hunting Dog, the chicken was stolen by the fox. I am not the one responsible！”
獾在洞裏嚇得大叫：“獵狗大叔，雞是狐狸偷的，不關我事！”The hunting dog replied,“The fox was a thief but you are a greedy badger！”The hunting dog immediately went inside the cave and killed the badger.
獵狗呵斥道：“狐狸是盜賊，而你是貪便宜的同謀！”獵狗立即跑進洞裏咬死了獾。
