Stories About Rabbits for Kids – Once upon a time, a wild and terrifying lion lived in a dense forest. He hunted and killed many animals every day. There was a fear of lion in the whole forest.

In such a situation, the animals called a meeting to solve this problem. Apart from the lion, the animals of the forest were present in that meeting. One after another, animals started giving them suggestions. But, everyone found the suggestion of the fox to be most correct. The fox had said in his suggestion, “We will send an animal to the lion every day. By doing this, the lion will also get his food and he will not kill other animals. After that, we will be able to roam freely in the forest and look for our food Without fear. “

Everyone listened to the fox and agreed to her. Now the fox approached the lion to tell the same thing. The fox said to the lion, “We will send you an animal to eat every day. You will not have to hunt so much every day for your food. Rest at your place.”

“Well,” said the lion, “but keep in mind that even if I don’t have any animals for one day, I will go out on the hunt again and kill a lot of animals.”
The fox agreed to the lion’s terms and left. Now every day a single animal would be sent one by one and he would kill and eat them. Now, it was the turn of a rabbit. That rabbit was very clever and used his mind all the time. This time also he thought what to do to get out of this trouble.

Before leaving he said to all the animals, “Today, it is my turn. But today either I will die or the lion.” Saying this, the rabbit left from there. While walking along the way, he started thinking about how he would get rid of the lion. While walking, he saw a well. He went to the well so that he could drink water from there. The water was far from his reach so he could not drink water.

When he looked into the well, he saw his shadow in the well. Seeing his shadow, the rabbit got an idea and started going straight towards the lion.

On the other side, the hunger of the lion was increasing. His anger was also increasing due to feeling hungry. In his mind, he started thinking that he will kill many animals by hunting again today. But only after that the rabbit arrived. The rabbit said, “Here I come, my master.”
“Why is it so late for you to come? I have been waiting for you. I am hungry” the lion said to the rabbit.

The lion looked very angry. Rabbit told, “I would have come earlier but another lion has come to this forest. That lion is more powerful and stronger than you. He calls himself the real king of this forest. Because of that lion, I had to come in hiding and because of this, I was late. “

The lion became even angrier upon hearing the rabbit’s words. The lion said to the rabbit, “There cannot be a king of this forest except me. Only and only I am the king of this forest. Take me to that lion and I will teach him a lesson.”
The rabbit then took the lion to the well where he had tried to drink water. As soon as the rabbit and the lion approached the well, the rabbit started to act feared. The rabbit said, “This is the well from where that lion comes out and goes back after hunting.”

Now the lion went to that well and looked into it. After peeping into the well, the lion was seen his shadow, which he thought to be another lion. He roared in anger. The shadow also started copying the lion. This caused the lion to become irritated and angrily the lion jumped into the well. The lion wanted him to fight but after jumping into the well he came to know that there no lion. It was just his shadow. In this way, the lion lost his life.

After the lion died, all the animals were now completely free. Everyone praised the understanding of the rabbit and thanked him.
