This story is again based on humans and lead actors are not animals. Hence I feel that this is added as a addition in the translations by writer later on. It is also not very suitable for young kids and hence if you want to listen to this with kids, you may like to skip this story. Since Mr Ryder had on his version on translation, I have retained it. Enjoy the story.
