“The Tailless Fox and Her Failed Persuasion”

Once a Fox got caught in a trap. She tore off her tail, and got away. She began to contrive how to cover up her shame. She invited all Foxes of the area.  She motivated them to cut off their tails as they are useless and destroy their beauty. A the end of her speech she said: "A tail is a useless thing. In vain do we drag along a dead weight."

One of the Foxes replied:

"You would not be speaking thus, if you were not tail-less!" 

The tailless Fox grew silent and went away.
