A Wolf had been hunting and was now eager start gorge on an animal he had killed. Suddenly a small bone happened get stuck in his throat and he could not swallow it. He soon felt the bone scratch the inside of his throat painfully. Other animals could hear him whine and groan. He ran up and down trying find something relieve the pain. The bone needed be removed quickly. He tried persuade everyone he met remove the bone. “I would give anything,” said he, “if you would take it out.” The Wolf promised reward anyone who would be brave enough help him. But rather than

Finally the Wolf noticed the Crane walk by. The Crane was known be a bit greedy. “You must help me!” said the Wolf. The Crane wanted get the reward and agreed try. He made the Wolf lie on his side and
told him open his jaws as wide as he could. That way the Crane could put his long neck down the Wolf’s throat and with his beak he attempted loosen the bone. At last he managed get it out. “Will you now be kind and hand me the reward I should be given?” said the Crane. The Wolf began grin. He showed his teeth and told the Crane be content. “You were happy enough put your head inside a Wolf’s mouth and I let you take it out again in one piece. That should be reward enough for you.”
