sureiOne day, a cat, a raven, a snake, and a wolf all met, and because each were proud, they refused to bow to the other, and so they had a competition to determine who should be king of the forest. The wolf went first.
"I am king of the forest," he said, "because with my pack, there is no animal I cannot hunt down."
"That's all very well," said the cat, "but without your pack, I can defeat you with just my claws to your nose."
"You may think your claws are so great," said the snake, "but my fangs are filled with venom, and a single bite will kill you."
"I am king of the forest," said the raven at last, "because while the three of you can each kill the other, none of you can catch me." And he flew off to prove it.
- It just so happens that those three are the four animals/kinds of animals I like best.
