00:00A camel and a jackal.
00:05Once there lived a camel and a jackal.
00:09They were good friends.
00:11They lived near a river.
00:14One day, the jackal came to know that there was a field of ripe melons across the river.
00:21His mouth watered.
00:24Aha! There are so many ripe melons there in the field.
00:29But they are at the other bank of the river.
00:32I don't know how to swim.
00:35How can I get there?
00:37He said to himself.
00:40My friend camel can swim very well.
00:42If he agrees to carry me across the river, then I can enjoy the melons.
00:48I must talk to him.
00:50So, the fox went to meet the camel.
00:54Oh, my dear friend.
00:56I have a very good news for you.
00:59There are so many ripe melons across the river.
01:02Let's go there and enjoy.
01:05The camel was also tempted to eat the melons.
01:09All right, dear friend.
01:11We'll go there tomorrow.
01:13I know that you can't swim, so I'll carry you on my back.
01:17He said.
01:19Next day, they started for the field of ripe melons.
01:24The camel carried the jackal on his back and they crossed the river.
01:29Both of them reached the field.
01:32They were thrilled to see so many ripe melons.
01:36Come, dear. Let's enjoy the melons, said the fox.
01:41They started eating the melons.
01:44The jackal ate the melons very quickly.
01:47The camel was slow to eat the melons.
01:50Being tall, he could not reach the melons as they were near the ground.
01:55When the jackal had eaten the melons to his heart's content, he thought of a mischief.
02:02He started howling very loudly.
02:05Then he ran and hid himself.
02:08The owners of the field came running.
02:11There are animals in the field.
02:13They will eat all our melons.
02:15Come, let us save our fields.
02:18When they reached the field, they found only the camel there.
02:23They started beating him and drove him out of the field.
02:28The fox felt much amused.
02:31When the owners had gone, he came out of hiding.
02:34Oh, dear friend, I am so sorry they beat you so badly, he said.
02:40The camel asked the jackal angrily.
02:44I got the beating because of you.
02:47Why did you howl?
02:49The jackal replied,
02:51Oh, it is my habit to howl after a heavy meal.
02:55I just can't help it.
02:57Both of them started their return journey.
03:01The jackal jumped again on the back of the camel.
03:05The camel carried the jackal again on his back into the river.
03:10When they were in the middle of the river,
03:12the camel decided to teach a lesson to the jackal.
03:16He began to roll in the water vigorously.
03:20The jackal got frightened.
03:23He pleaded,
03:24Oh, dear friend, please don't roll.
03:27Otherwise, I will fall in the water.
03:29Oh, it is my habit to roll like this in water.
03:33I can't help it, said the camel.
03:36The jackal had to struggle hard to save his life.
