An old tiger lives in the forest. He does not want to look for food now. He often tells other animals to bring him something to eat.

　　He sees a monkey and says," I'm hungry, monkey. Go to the village and bring me a fat pig."

　　"Oh, Tiger," says the monkey. "I can't do that now. There is another tiger over there. He also wants a fat pig. He will not let me get anything for you to eat. I am afraid of him."

　　"What" cries the tiger. "Show me that tiger. I will talk to him."

　　"Come with me," says the monkey.

　　The monkey and the tiger get to a bridge over the river. "Now look down at the water," says the monkey.  

　　"Do you see the hand, the white teeth and the large green eyes of a tiger"

　　"Yes, I do," cries the old tiger," I will eat him up!"

　　With these words, the tiger jumped into the river.
