In the heart of the jungle, the mighty lion ruled with an iron paw. He was feared by all for his strength and ferocity.

Among the many creatures in the jungle, there lived a small, timid rabbit. The rabbit was clever and always managed to stay out of the lion's way.

One day, the animals gathered to discuss a pressing matter. The lion was demanding a daily tribute of an animal for his meal. The rabbit had an idea.

The rabbit proposed to trick the lion. He suggested that he should be sent as the next tribute, armed with a cunning plan to outsmart the lion.

The next day, the rabbit went to the lion's den. He appeared frightened, which pleased the lion. The rabbit began to spin his tale.

The rabbit told the lion that he was delayed because there was another lion in the jungle, who was trying to claim his territory and demanded to eat him.

The lion, filled with rage, demanded to be taken to this imposter. The rabbit led him to a deep well and pointed at the reflection in the water.

The lion, seeing his own reflection, believed it to be the other lion and without a second thought, he jumped into the well to attack.

With the lion gone, the rabbit returned to the jungle. The other animals cheered for the rabbit's wit and bravery, their fears finally put to rest.

The rabbit's cleverness saved the jungle from the lion's tyranny. His tale of bravery and wit spread across the jungle, inspiring all.

From then on, the animals lived in peace and harmony. The story of the clever rabbit and the fierce lion became a tale told to young ones.

The rabbit's tale taught everyone the power of wit and courage. It proved that brains could indeed triumph over brawn, even in the wildest of jungles.
