Fox was fishing in the river; when he had ten fish, he put them on his back and walked off into the woods.
Bear came along and saw Fox with the fish on his back.
" How come you have so many fishes on your back? How are you fishing those fishes out of the water?"
Fox said, "it's easy. You sit on the ice and put your tail on the river. The fishes catch onto your tail and when you get up, there will be all of those fishes just hanging on."
"Thanks,"sad Bear as he ran off to war the river.
Predict what is bear is going to do.
He didn't know facts was laughing as he went along through the woods with his ten fish.
Bear sat on the eyes. He sat there a long time, waiting and waiting. He didn't notice any fish jumping onto his tail. All he noticed was that he still was freezing. It hurt.
After a long time, bear said, " i can't feel my tail."
He got up and looked. It was true. His long tail had frozen off. All he had felt was a very short tail.
Bear was angry. He gave up fishing and run into the woods looking for fox. Fox was cooking his ten fish when bear grabbed him.
Bear said, "you tricked me and my beautiful long tail froze off. So now i'm taking you back to the river. How throw you and let you freeze."
"No," Fox said. "Don't do that. If you let me go, l'll give you all my fish."
So bear that fox go and ate all the fish himself and warmed his short tail by fox's fire.
Now all bears have short tails. This is how it happened.
