And when he couldn't see any animal he decided to return home. But surprisingly he saw a fresh tigh of a cow, then he rush there to it, then he was trapped by a wooden cage. He tried in other to come out but nothing goes well for him. Then he ate the meat and lied in the wooden cage until the next day. The prayers of the lion was that one animal should pass through where he was and help him but he was still in the wooden cage until the next evening. One of the fears of the lion in the wooden cage was that the hunter will come and finished him with his spear but he was lucky that, that day was a day we don't visit the forest. And the hunter will visit the forest in the next morning or the evening.

The sheep ask why are you trying to eat me, you promised me you won't eat me when I release you. But he said yes but I have no choice because I have been in this cage for the past twenty five hours and I am hungry. The sheep continue to plead but the lion didn't understand what the sheep was trying to say because he was hungry. I have been kind to you and this is what you are trying to pay me with the sheep said. They took hold of the matter to most of the animals in the forest but they all spoke in favor of the lion because they all fear him.
