The Fox with the Stunded Tail (Seekor Rubah Yang Tidak Punya Ekor)

The Fox with the Stunded Tail

A fox lost her tail in a trap and was ashamed of her loss. It seemed extremely unfair to her that she alone should lack a tail.

She seriously thought the world would be a much improved place if all the other foxes too were to have no tails. And so she tried to convince them all to cut off their tails.

“The tail,” she said, “is just an extra weight. And you could hardly call it elegant! Or pretty!”

“If that is so,” replied her friend, “then why are you so unhappy without one?”





Seekor Rubah Yang Tidak Punya Ekor

Seekor rubah kehilangan ekornya dalam perangkap dan malu atas kehilangannya. Rasanya sangat tidak adil baginya bahwa ia sendiri harus kehilangan ekor.

Dia berpikir dengan serius dunia akan menjadi tempat yang sangat menyenangkan jika semua rubah yang lain juga tidak memiliki ekor. Sehingga dia berusaha meyakinkan mereka semua untuk memotong ekor mereka.

"Ekor," katanya, "ekor hanyalah berat badan ekstra. Dan kalian tidak bisa menyebutnya elegan! Atau cantik!"

"Jika memang demikian," jawab temannya, "lalu mengapa kau begitu tidak bahagia tanpa ekor?"
