deer played happily around. Their mother followed them into a cave. The mother deer

it was a tiger's cave with bones of dead animals all over. Thankfully the tiger
was not inside the cave at the time.
The
deer was trying to lead her children out when she saw a tiger at a distance coming
back. It was dangerous to go out now. She thought of a plan. The tiger had come
closer to the cave. The deer raised her voice and shouted, "My dear children,
don't cry. I shall capture a tiger for you to.2 You can have a good dinner."
The
tiger heard these words and thought," A3animal
is waiting inside to capture me. I shall run away to escape death."

"I
don't want to take a chance. You may run away, and I will be left alone to die."
