The hungry fox who got caught in the tree trunk

Once upon a time, there was a hungry fox that was looking for something to eat. He was very hungry. No matter how hard he tried, the fox could not find food. Finally he went to the edge of the forest and searched there for food. Suddenly he caught sight of a big tree with a hole in it.

Inside the hole was a package. The hungry fox immediately thought that there might be food in it, and became very happy. He jumped into the hole. When he opened the package, he saw slices of bread, meat and fruit in it!

An old woodcutter had placed the food in the tree trunk before he began to cut down trees in the forest. He was going to eat it for his lunch.

The fox happily began to eat. After he finished eating, he felt thirsty and decided to leave the hole and drink some water from a nearby spring. However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not get out of the hole. Do you know why? Yes, the fox had eaten so much food that he became too big to fit through the hole!

The fox was very sad and upset. He told himself, “I wish I had thought a little before jumping into the hole.”

Yes children, this is the result of doing something without thinking about it first.

被树干夹住的饥饿狐狸

从前，有一只饥饿的狐狸正在寻找可以吃的东西。他很饿。无论他多么努力，狐狸都找不到食物。最终，它去了森林的边缘，在那里搜寻食物。突然，他看到了一棵大树，里面有一个洞。

孔里有一个包裹。饥饿的狐狸立即认为其中可能有食物，并变得非常高兴。他跳入洞里。当他打开包裹时，它看到了面包，肉和水果的切片！

一个年老的伐木者将食物放在树干中，然后才开始在森林中砍伐树木。他打算吃午餐。

狐狸开心地开始吃饭。吃完饭后，他感到口渴，决定离开洞中，从附近的泉水里喝一些水。但是，无论他多么努力，他都无法摆脱困境。你知道为什么吗？

是的，狐狸吃了太多食物，以至于他变得太大了，无法穿过洞！狐狸非常难过和沮丧。他对自己说：“我希望我在跳入洞中之前想过一点。”

寓意：是的，孩子们，这是做某事而无需首先考虑的结果。
