A herd of elephants was living in a jungle. Because of their sheer strength they used to torment other animals. There was a pond which was always occupied by the elephants. This did not enable other animals to drink water. A bunch of rabbits lived nearby. They asked their leader for solution of this elephant menace. The leader got an idea. On the full moon night he went to the elephant king. He said that he was the messenger of the moon. Moon was the god of the pond and he was not happy with the elephant. The elephant king got angry at first. Then the rabbit asked him to come along to meet the moon. Both of them went near the pond. When the elephant saw the reflection of the moon in the pond he was convinced that rabbit was telling the truth. The elephant promised the rabbit that he and his herd would never disturb other animals in future.
