The Hunter and the Wolf
There once was a man who lived in the forest with his daughters and a wolf. Everyday he went out into the forest to hunt for food. And everyday he left his daughters at home with the wolf standing guard.
Whenever people saw him they said “Why do you leave your daughters with a wolf? He is a very dangerous animal. You can’t trust him. One day he will surely kill your daughters”.
Each time the man stood up for the wolf. “He is my loyal companion” said the man, “and he protects my daughters”.
Then one day the man returned home from hunting. He opened the door and saw the wolf in the doorway. His mouth was covered in blood. The hunter was horrified. He reached for his gun and shot him dead. The man thought that the wolf had eaten his daughters.
But as soon as he entered the house he saw his daughters standing there alive and well. Lying on the ground in a pool of blood was a huge snake. The snake had tried to attack the girls but the wolf had risked his life to save them.
The moral of the story: Judge a person by their actions, not by what others say about them.
