　　The Quail King And The Hunter

　　Once upon a time， there was a Quail King who reigned over a flock of a thousand quails.

　　There was also a very clever quail hunter. He knew how to make a quail call. Because this sounded just like a real quail crying for help， it never failed to attract other quails. Then the hunter covered them with a net， stuffed them in baskets， and sold them to make a living.

　　Because he always put the safety of his fl ock first. Quail King was highly respected by all. While on the lookout for danger， one day he came across the hunter and saw what he did. He thought， 'This quail hunter has a good plan for destroying our relatives. I must make a better plan to save us.“

　　Then he called together his whole nation of a thousand quails. He also invited other quails to attend the meeting. He said， “Greetings to our quail nation and welcome to our visitors. We are faced with great danger. Many of our relatives are being trapped and sold by a clever hunter. Then they are being killed and eaten. I have come up with a plan to save us all. When the hunter covers us with his net， every single one of us must raise his neck at the same time. Then， all together， we should fly away with the net and drop it on a thorn bush. That will keep him busy， and we will be able to escape with our lives.” All agreed to follow this smart strategy.

　　The next day the hunter lured the quails with his quail call as usual. But when he threw his net over them， they all raised up their necks at once， fl ew away with the net， and dropped it on a thorn bush. He could catch no quails at all！ In addition， it took him the rest of the day to loosen his net from the thorns
