The Tortoise and the Eagle TRACK

03

A Central African fable revisited

Tortoise and Eagle are friends. They meet T v very rarely, but every time that Eagle visits his friend, Tortoise offers him a delicious meal. After lunch, Tortoise says: “I am putting some food in this basket. Take it to your children.” The food at Tortoise’s home is so good that Eagle comes back again and again. Every time he flies back home, Eagle laughs: “Ha ha! I can share Tortoise’s food, but he can never come to my tree to share my food!” Soon, the other animals in the forest start making comments. One day Frog is talking to Tortoise and decides to advise him. “Tortoise,” says Frog, “Eagle is taking advantage of your generosity. Every time he leaves your home he says, “Ha ha! I can share Tortoise’s food, but he can never come to my tree to share mine!” The next time Eagle comes, he can’t find Tortoise; all he can find is a basket with a message: “This basket of food is for you and your family.” Eagle takes the basket home. He doesn’t know that Tortoise is inside it. When they are at Eagle’s home, Tortoise jumps out of the basket and says, “Hello, Eagle. I am visiting you today and sharing a meal with you.” Eagle is furious and says, “ You are the only meal here, Tortoise!” “Now I see what kind of friend you are, Eagle,” says Tortoise. “This is the end of our friendship. Please, take me back home now.” “Take you home!”, shouts Eagle. “I am not going to take you home! I am going to throw you to the ground and watch you smash into little pieces,” screams the bird. Tortoise quickly grips Eagle’s leg and doesn’t let go. Eagle screams, “Tortoise! Let me go! Let go of my leg!” Tortoise replies, “I can let go of your leg only if you take me back to my home.” Eagle has no choice and takes Tortoise back to his home. That was the end of their friendship.

Moral: “Friendship requires the contribution of two people.”
