A Mighty Caterpillar Teaches us to Never Lose Hope

Long years back, a caterpillar crawled inside a hare's (an animal-like rabbit)
house while the hare was away, he sat comfortably. When the hare came back
home, he noticed a few marks on the floor heading to the cave. He called,
"Who's in my house?’’

The caterpillar boomed out in a noisy voice, "It is I! Yes, I who crushes rhinos to
the earth and tramples elephants into dust!" The hare hopped about, crying,
"What can a small animal like me do with a creature who crushes rhinos and
tramples elephants?"

He eventually found a jackal and asked him to speak with the terrifying beast
who'd already seized over his residence and encouraged him to leave. The jackal
agreed, and once they reached the place, he barked loudly and stated, "Who is
in the house of my friend the hare?"

In a roar that shook the land, the caterpillar replied, "It is I! Yes, I who crushes
rhinos to the earth, and tramples elephants into dust!" On listening to this the
jackal thought, "Certainly I can do nothing against any such creature," and he
quickly left.

"Who is in the house of my buddy the hare?"

The hare subsequently went to find a leopard and persuaded him to help him.
The leopard was convinced that the hare would have no trouble.

On reaching the spot, the leopard bared his claws and growled, "Who is in the
house of my buddy the hare?" The caterpillar responded in the same way as he
had finished before.

The leopard was alarmed and thought, "If he crushes rhinos and elephants, I do
not even need to think about what he could do to me!"

Next, the hare sought out the rhinoceros. "No doubt, I am the most frightful of
beasts," grunted the rhino. The rhino marched to the hare's cave, wherein he
snorted and pawed the floor with his large feet. But while the rhino asked who
was inside and heard the caterpillar's booming response, "What, he says he can
smash me to the ground?" he wondered. And the rhino bolted away, crashing
into the trees.

As the hare became increasingly agitated, he approached the elephant and


demanded that he come to his aid. But just like the others, on listening to what
the caterpillar needed to say, the elephant knew that he had no desire to be
trampled underfoot like dust, and stomped off.

In despair by this point, the hare requested a frog to pass by if he may want to
likely make the creature who had frightened all the other animals depart his
house. The frog went to the cave door and requested who was inside. He
acquired the same reply as had been given to the others. Then the frog went
closer and shouted,"I, who am the strongest of all, have come at last. I am the
only one who crushes those who crush the rhinos! I am the only one who
tramples underfoot those who trample the elephants!"

"I, who am the strongest of all, have come at last!"

The bug within the hare's tunnel was frightened as he overheard something.
"Admittedly, I am a caterpillar!" he thought as he sensed the frog's silhouette
approaching. And the caterpillar crept out of the hare's burrow all along the rim,
hoping not to be seen.

The animals who had amassed around the hare's house seized the caterpillar
and dragged him out. "What, you?" they all cried in disbelief.

"I might by no means dream of staying in that cave!" stated the caterpillar with his
nostril in the air. "An echo like this is way too crude for a cultured creature like
myself!" As he sniffed away, all of the other animals laughed at the problem he
had given them.
