The Leopard and the Crocodile: Web Link
I have noticed in the Congo Unit it is normal for a man to have many wives. Typically the man is always the provider of the house while the women are always asking for things. So, in this story a man befriended a leopard and a crocodile. He took advantage of the leopard and the crocodile by presenting them with palm nuts. However they didn't know about one another. So, the man continued to present and the leopard and the crocodile continued to give meat and fish. Until, the end when the leopard and the crocodile grew tired of palm nuts and wanted to eat a dog instead. The man coordinated that the leopard and crocodile meet up (thinking they were each meeting with a dog). The leopard and crocodile ended up fighting each other to the death. I liked the story and how simple it is. I also like the way the leopard and crocodile were friends with the human.
