13 The Greedy Badger 贪婪的獾
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，狐狸在农舍偷肥母鸡时被猎狗发现了。狐狸叼起那只鸡拼命地往森林里逃。狐狸因为叼着母鸡，跑不快，猎狗在后面紧追不舍。
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？”
这时，正巧碰到一只獾在洞口附近徘徊，狐狸放下那只死鸡，说道：“獾老弟，我从农舍偷了一只肥母鸡，你先叼回洞里去吧，晚上咱们一同分享好吗？”
The badger happily carried the big fat hen into his cave while the fox quickly ran off.
獾兴高采烈地把它叼进洞穴里去了。狐狸飞快地逃走了。
The hunting dog reached the cave and stopped when he saw some blood stains at the entrance.
猎狗追到这个洞时便停了下来，因为它看见洞穴入口处有鸡的血迹。
The badger shouted from inside the cave,“Dear Hunting Dog, the chicken was stolen by the fox. I am not the one responsible！”
獾在洞里吓得大叫：“猎狗大叔，鸡是狐狸偷的，不关我事！”
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.
猎狗呵斥道：“狐狸是盗贼，而你是贪便宜的同谋！”猎狗立即跑进洞里咬死了獾。
