Zoe, the baby elephant, was known for her playful spirit in the savanna. She loved to engage with her animal friends, but there was one problem - her uncontrollable farts!

Whenever Zoe was around, her friends, the Lion, Rhino, and Monkey, knew they had to be cautious. Every giggle, every jump, every playful chase would end up with Zoe farting.

One day, while playing near the watering hole, Zoe laughed at one of Monkey's funny faces. Suddenly, a gust of wind sent her friends flying into a nearby tree!

"Zoe, you need to control your farts," grumbled Rhino, struggling to free himself from the branches. Lion nodded in agreement, while Monkey just sighed.

Zoe, feeling guilty, decided to seek help. She went to the wise old owl. "Old Owl, my farts are causing trouble for my friends. Can you help me control them?" she asked.

The old owl thought for a while and then instructed Zoe, "Zoe, you need to learn to control your laughter. Only then can you control your farts."

For the next few days, Zoe practiced controlling her laughter. She would stay quiet when Monkey made funny faces, and she wouldn't giggle when Lion roared in his sleep.

Her friends noticed the change in Zoe. They missed her laughter but were happy that their playtime didn't involve any sudden flights into the trees anymore.

One day, while everyone was gathered around the watering hole, Monkey did a silly dance. Zoe felt a laugh building up inside her.

But remembering the old owl's advice, she took a deep breath and managed to control her laughter. There was no gust of wind, no friends flying into trees.

Zoe had finally learned to control her farts! Her friends were overjoyed and celebrated by splashing water all over each other. And so, life in the savanna was back to normal.
